INDORE: A day after the blast in air compressor at private Curewell Hospital, district chief medical and health officer (CMHO) sent a three-member team comprising Dr Mahesh Malviya, Dr G L Sodhi and Dr M C Jinwal to check the faults that led to the incident.
The committee will submit a report to the CMHO for appropriate action into the matter.
Talking to TOI, CMHO, Dr S L Porwal said, “We have sent a team to probe the incident. It is duty of the hospital administration to get the technical inspections done on a regular basis. The committee will be submitting a report following which further action will be taken.”
Dr Porwal said that it is the responsibility of engineers employed by the hospital to periodically check technical aspects. When asked whether health department conducts routine inspection to avoid any such incident, he said, “We do look for such loopholes when registration/license is renewed, which is done once in three years. Random inspections are also done when required.”
