Imphal, September 11, 2010:
On account of acute shortage of manpower and expertise, the State Government has been left without an answer to the Ministry of Healths enquiry whether it has the requisite manpower to run the two district hospitals it had proposed to set up.
According to information from the State Health Services, the State Government had proposed to the Ministry of Health for establishment of two 100 bedded hospitals in Imphal West and Imphal East districts, some distance away from Imphal city.
However, the State Government has been facing acute shortage of manpower to run the proposed district hospitals.
Already, a large number of doctors, laboratory and clinical workers under the Health Department have been absorbed in the Jawaharlal Nehru Institute of Medical Sciences (JNIMS).
Many specialist doctors have also joined JNIaMS thereby seriously depleting manpower of the Health Services.
Number of specialist doctors required to open a district hospital is lacking in the Manipur Health Services.
