PESHAWAR: The Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Health Department <\/a><\/span>initiated<\/span> a <\/span>fresh<\/span> hiring <\/span>process<\/span> to <\/span>cover<\/span> the province-wide <\/span>deficiency<\/span> of <\/span>physicians<\/span>. <\/span><\/p>\n

As<\/span> the first phase, 166 <\/span>health<\/span> workers<\/span> will be <\/span>hired<\/span> on a contract basis, <\/span>of<\/span> which <\/span>115 <\/span>will be <\/span>medical officers and 51 <\/span>will be <\/span>specialist consultants, to <\/span>beef<\/span>up <\/span>services <\/span>in<\/span> District Headquarters Hospitals<\/a> (DHQs). <\/span><\/p>\n

This <\/span>hiring<\/span>campaign<\/span> aims to <\/span>enhance<\/span> the<\/span> availability<\/span> of<\/span> public <\/span>healthcare, <\/span>especially<\/span> in <\/span>rural<\/span> and backward regions<\/span>. <\/span>One<\/span> of<\/span> the<\/span> main features <\/span>of the plan is to <\/span>advance<\/span> local candidates for hospitals <\/span>within<\/span> their <\/span>respective<\/span> areas<\/span>, <\/span>so<\/span> that <\/span>physicians<\/span> are <\/span>aware<\/span> of<\/span> the local <\/span>situation<\/span> and can <\/span>practice<\/span> better<\/span> medicine<\/span>. <\/span><\/p>\n

Physicians<\/span> shall<\/span> not be <\/span>sent<\/span> to other locations<\/span>, <\/span>ensuring<\/span> stability in local <\/span>health<\/span> services and <\/span>enabling<\/span> them to <\/span>develop<\/span> good<\/span> relations<\/span> with patients and communities.<\/span><\/p>\n

The Health Advisor has given<\/span> his nod to <\/span>the initiative, <\/span>making<\/span> it clear <\/span>that it will not only <\/span>generate<\/span> employment<\/span> for <\/span>healthcare<\/span> professionals but also <\/span>increase<\/span> the<\/span> functionality <\/span>of<\/span> hospitals throughout <\/span>Khyber Pakhtunkhwa.<\/span><\/p>\n

Apart<\/span> from<\/span> this contract-based recruitment, the government is also <\/span>accelerating<\/span> the <\/span>recruitment<\/span> of 600 specialist doctors <\/span>using<\/span> the Public Service Commission<\/a>. To make these <\/span>posts<\/span>more <\/span>affordable<\/span>, age <\/span>restrictions<\/span> have been <\/span>lowered<\/span> by five years<\/span> so<\/span>that <\/span>more experienced professionals <\/span>can<\/span> apply. <\/span><\/p>\n

The advisor has also <\/span>directed<\/span> that<\/span> the<\/span> promotion<\/span> of<\/span> doctors <\/span>be expedited <\/span>and <\/span>that<\/span> the<\/span> long-standing <\/span>seniority <\/span>problems be solved<\/span>, which will <\/span>contribute<\/span> to <\/span>increasing<\/span> morale and motivation <\/span>of<\/span> medical staff. <\/span><\/p>\n

In addition<\/span>, <\/span>attempts<\/span>are <\/span>also<\/span> being made <\/span>to <\/span>compile<\/span> province-<\/span>level<\/span> data on specialists, which will <\/span>facilitate<\/span> proper <\/span>deployment<\/span> and <\/span>improved<\/span> delivery <\/span>of services <\/span>in the future. <\/span><\/p>\n

By <\/span>doing<\/span> this<\/span>, the <\/span>government of <\/span>Khyber Pakhtunkhwa <\/span>hopes<\/span> to <\/span>enhance<\/span> the overall <\/span>standard<\/span> of healthcare services and <\/span>make<\/span>sure <\/span>that medical <\/span>doctors<\/span> are <\/span>being<\/span> effectively <\/span>utilized <\/span>to <\/span>fulfill<\/span> the <\/span>requirements<\/span> of the population.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
