The villagers of Makkampalayam, near Sathy, appealed to the government to reopen the health sub centre there. As it was closed for the past few months due to lack of nurse, people of over 1000 families of the area have to go to far flung Kadambur or Sathy.
The block health officer said that Kadambaur, Pasuvanapuram and Makambalayam, have vacancies in nurses posts. With the existing staff the situation was being managed.

Due to the wild floods, there was no bus facility to go to Makambalayam, so there was a problem in sending a nurse there. The problem would be settled shortly.
