Medical Health Officer, NMC, Dr Sanjay Chilkar visited there and found that elderly and sick people were hopping on way to third floor. He then issued written instruction to shift the centre from the third to the first floor. Dr Deshmukh in her letter said since senior citizens are visiting ESIS hospital in large numbers it is getting crowded and they are finding it difficult to complete target of 100 doses per day. This is also resulting in altercation between staff and elderly people who are obstructing administrative work. Therefore, she wanted Centre be closed for senior citizens.
