JAKARTA - The Deputy Regent (Wabup) of Central Lombok, West Nusa Tenggara (NTB) HM Nursiah ensured that health services at all health centers continued to run after the death of the Head of the Health Office Suardi, due to illness.

"For services at the Puskesmas, we have coordinated with all the heads of the Puskesmas," said HM Nursiah after visiting the funeral home in Central Lombok, Wednesday, quoted by Antara.

He said that there were no obstacles to administrative services in the district, because there was already a secretary of the service.

Therefore, the public should not worry, because health services at the health centers in 12 sub-districts are still running normally as usual.

"Residents who need health services are welcome to come to the health center, the staff is still ready to provide services," he said.

He said that on behalf of the government, he felt very lost at the death of the late Head of the Central Lombok Office, Suardi, because he was in good health.

"He has a very good social soul and works hard to improve health services to the people of Central Lombok, even though he still works on holidays to provide services," he said.

"Fate said otherwise, he died at the office to prepare for an audit by the Financial Audit Agency (BPK) on the 2025 APBD financial statements," he said.

"We all feel lost," he said.

Previously, the Head of the Central Lombok Regency Health Office, Suardi, found bananas in his office on Tuesday, February 17 afternoon.

The deceased was under the hospital, but his life could not be saved or declared dead at the hospital.

The deceased was buried at the Beringin Village Public Cemetery, Kopang District, Central Lombok Regency, West Nusa Tenggara, Wednesday afternoon.
