Preface

This is the second edition of the” Notes on Dispensary Management” This is prepared and published with many additions to the First Edition. Effort has been made to add relevant changes in running Rules and to delete the out dated Rules. Many more changes are being introduced by the Government day by day, which are to be followed as such.

A Medical Officer who enters the Department of Indian Systems of Medicine, Kerala Service faces many difficulties in handling the Dispensary and Office Registers. As a Department newcomer in the Service he is unfamiliar with many of Office Procedures, also. It is the responsibility of the Department to give sufficient training. To the newly appointed Medical Officers. Many Departments conduct such training programmes to the officers before they take charge.

The K.S.G.A.M.O.Association has taken this matter very serious and memoranda had been given to the Government and authorities time to time. Only, our Former Directors who had been in the seat since 2001 February took the demand at its face value. They, especially Dr.R.Ramabhadran, put the basic steps and with the aid of the Institute of Management in Government (IMG) formulated many training programmes including Service Matters. But training to MOs before their joining in the department is not established yet.

In these situations, the K.S.G.A.M.O.Association has taken the responsibility to conduct training programmes to the junior doctors with available facilities. This book is intended to give the preliminary knowledge to them in Dispensary/Office Management.

One of the important matters to be born in mind is that there may be slight differences in the Office Procedures in different districts or in the same district under different treasuries. So the Medical Officers are not supposed to follow word by word descriptions in this book, but to understand the basic Rules. There may be differences in opinion in some matters, also.

I extend my gratitude to all of my colleagues especially Dr.M.P.Mitra, Our Patron, for their assistance in preparing this booklet.

I sincerely hope that the Medical Officer who enters the Service finds this booklet helpful in their official dealings.

Dr.K.M.Madhavan B.A.M. President, K.S.G.A.M.O.Association
