Lack of teachers and infrastructure at Government Homoeopathic College in Sambalpur

 Lack of teachers and infrastructure has taken a toll on the Government Homoeopathic College in Sambalpur. Recently, the Central Council of Homeopathy (CCH) has directed the College Administration to stop admission to Bachelor of Homoeopathic  Medicine and Surgery (BHMS) course  from next academic session for lack of teachers and infrastructure.

 The direction comes after a delegation of the CCH visited the College last year and found many things wanting.

 Established in 1987, large-scale vacancies are gradually taking a heavy toll on the College and locals fear neglect by the State Government would lead to its closure. The Government Homeopathic College has a well equipped 25-bed hospital. However, the equipment is gathering dust in the absence of skilled manpower to handle them. While patients are being denied treatment, students have to manage without practical classes.

New scheme to improve child healthcare

UPA chairperson Sonia Gandhi would launch a new scheme on Wednesday to improve child healthcare under the National Rural Health Mission, under which every child younger than six years would be screened for 30 select deficiencies and disorders. 

To be kicked off at Palghar, a tribal block in Maharashtra's Thane district, the scheme envisages issuing a follow-up or treatment guidance to children, depending on their symptoms and health status. The government plans to roll out this scheme for 27 crore people under 18 years in phased manner. 

The 30 deficiencies and disorders that children would be screened for include anemia, vitamin A, vitamin D, acute malnutrition, goiter, alongside some congenital diseases such as cataract, deafness, heart diseases. About a tenth of India's die of birth defects, while hearing or vision-related developmental delays affect 10% of children, which could lead to permanent disabilities later in life. Typically, every block would be equipped with a team of at least four health personnel to carry out the screening process of children at Anganwadi centres and government schools.

Unless Parents observe other areas of "slowness" during early development, they may hesitate to seek advice. Knowing what's "normal" and what's not in speech and language development can help you figure out if you should be concerned or if your child is right on schedule.

It's important for kids below 12 months of age to be watched for signs that they're using their voices to relate to their environment. Cooing and babbling are early stages of speech development. As babies get older (often around 9 months), they begin to string sounds together, incorporate the different tones of speech, and say words like "mama" and "dada" (without really understanding what those words mean).

Before 12 months, children should also be attentive to sound and begin to recognize names of common objects (for example bottle, ball, etc.). Babies who watch intently but don't react to sound may be showing signs of hearing loss.
