Srinagar/IBNS: Sher-i-Kashmir Institute of Medical Sciences (SKIMS) has operationalised the specific drug counter in covid19 block for convenience of patients.

“Medical Superintendent SKIMS informed that drug counter has been opened and is functional from today. He said, it was a public demand that the IDB/COVID block should have separate drug counter," SKIMS Assistant Director (Public Relations) said.

"The drug counter will have all required drugs available and it will be convenient for the patients admitted in COVID block  who otherwise had to purchase drugs from main pharmacy SKIMS. The services  are hoped to bring relief to the COVID patients for drug procurement,” he said.

Meanwhile, SKIMS extended its MRD Counter services at Maternity Hospital, he added.

“The counter will now remain functional round the clock. Initially, it was serviceable only upto 4 PM and patients were facing lot of difficulties in getting Registration Cards beyond the hours. In response to public demand, the  administration addressed the issue on priority, it is hoped to bring relief to the patients,” an official statement said.
