Amader Haspatal Phulberia (GP Teghori) Bankura
The core philosophy of Amader Haspatal, is not to let any patient, however poor or sick, feel humiliated in any way. One of the main reasons why many poor people shun public health facilities – if they exist at all in their areas – is the harshness and indifference with which they are treated by hospital staff. This is about putting the concept of ‘care' back into healthcare. “There is no way, in a large country like India , we can wait till we have qualified doctors everywhere. We need to engage positively with existing rural doctors and not make them outlaws,”. Amader Haspatal OPD Amader Haspatal Map As of now one of the problems the hospital faces is lack of doctors to come and provide services, largely due to its location, around 270 kilometers from Calcutta . However, for the team, the Haspatal's remoteness is not as much an obstacle as the very reason to be here where no other medical professional dares to go. Villagers travel 30 KM to nearest hospital
