Be clinical in diagnosis but not in behaviour: Prez to doctors
Deoghar: President Droupadi Murmu on Thursday urged the medical fraternity to "be clinical in diagnosis but not in behaviour", and be sympathetic towards people who consider them as God. The President was addressing the maiden convocation ceremony of AIIMS Deoghar at the temple city here. "Be clinical in diagnosis and surgery, but not in behaviour; be sensitive to people as they consider you as God. By adhering to moral values, compassion and charity, doctors can remove darkness from the lives of people," Murmu said. "As a Centre of Competence for tribals' health, AIIMS Deoghar should adopt more villages in addition to the existing five, and strive to become a model," she said, adding that women in tribal areas suffer from anaemia and malnutrition is common among children. Under these circumstances, doctors should extend their hands for social service. She lauded AIIMS Deoghar for sending anti-venom drugs to far-flung tribal areas through drones. The President said that she has a special connection with the institute, as when Prime Minister Narendra Modi laid its foundation in 2018, she was the governor of Jharkhand. Although AIIMS, Deoghar, primarily focuses on tertiary healthcare, it should also actively provide guidance and support in the field of primary healthcare , she said and emphasised that primary care is the basis of universal health coverage. A team of doctors and students from AIIMS Deoghar should visit Urban Primary Health Centres and Rural Community Health Centres to assist physicians, the President said. She also requested doctors to make inclusive healthcare their principle at the personal level as well. The President told the graduating students that getting an education at AIIMS is considered a guarantee that they will become skilled doctors.
