Integrated Tribal Development Agency (ITDA) Project Officer R. Gopala Krishna said that the Health Department should provide better services and ensure the Agency do not report any maternal deaths. He conducted a review meet with the staff from 11 mandals of the Agency here at Paderu on Wednesday.
Mr. Gopala Krishna said that the medical officials must see that deliveries of pregnant women take place only in hospitals and not in houses. The staff should shift pregnant woman to the nearest hospitals at least one week before the estimated date of delivery. He also asked the officials to check whether all the hospitals have stock of medicines and there is no shortage.
