Rapti Academy of Health Sciences (RAHS), Dang, has been running 24-hour free maternity service from Friday.
Vice-Chancellor Dr Basanta Lamichhane said that Safe Motherhood Programme is now free in the Academy. He shared that a woman visiting the Academy to receive maternity service has not to pay any charge.
After his appointment to the post of Vice-Chancellor, Dr Lamichhane had expressed commitment to provide free maternity service in the hospital.
Earlier, the service under the Safe Motherhood Programme was free in the hospital, women visiting the hospital for delivery service after midnight had to pay charge due to lack of required human resources.
Vice-Chancellor Dr Lamichhane shared that additional human resources would be added to provide free maternity service and it would be provided by mobilizing the available human resources of the hospital for the time being.
