WHAT IS THE CONDITION OF HEALTH IN NEPAL

Public health condition in our country is not satisfactory.Health facilities are not available to all.There are not sufficient hospitals,health centers and health posts.The number of doctors,nurses and health workers is too small.There is lack of medical apparatus in hospitals.Most medicine have to be imported.If a man is seriously ill,he has to go to other countries for treatment.Diseases which have disappeared from European countries still occur in Nepal

Due to lack of education,people in villages are ignorant.So when they are ill, they,instead of going to hospital or a private,go to a witch-doctor for the recovery from illness.He gives them some ashes or flower or a talisman.In many cases,patients lose their lives.

According to 2056/57 data, there are 83 hospitals,health centers ,711 health posts,3179 sub health posts ,160 primary health centers and 1259 doctors in Nepal.(International forum,Annual Issue 2051 )

Other organization and institutions are involved in healthy services.Important among them are Nepal Paropakar Sanstha ,Nepal Red cross society ,Family planning association of Nepal ,National Tuberculosis centers,etc.World health organization ,United mission to Nepal,International Nepal Fellowship have been making valuable contributions to health services.
