MLA Stresses Need for Enhanced Rural Health Services
A new heart hospital called Ideal Heart and Health Care Hospital was opened in a small place called Nunna, near Vijayawada.
A local leader named Yarlagadda Venkata Rao said it's important to have good hospitals in rural areas.
He praised a doctor named Dr Dinesh Reddy for choosing to open this hospital in his hometown instead of working in big cities.
The hospital will help people from Nunna and nearby villages who didn't have a heart hospital before.
The government is also working to build more small health centers in rural areas.
MLA Yarlagadda Venkata Rao emphasized the need for better rural health services during the inauguration of Ideal Heart and Health Care Hospital in Nunna.
Dr Dinesh Reddy Polareddy opened the heart specialty hospital in a rural area despite offers from major corporate hospitals in big cities.
The new facility will benefit residents of Nunna and surrounding rural areas between Vissannapet and Vijayawada, where no cardiac hospital previously existed.
The state government is working to establish Primary Health Centres (PHCs) for every 20,000 residents to improve healthcare accessibility in rural regions.
Local leaders and community members attended the inauguration event.
