Raipur. To strengthen health services in Chhattisgarh, 520 new employees have been appointed. Chief Minister Vishnudev Sai handed over appointment letters to the newly appointed health workers at a function held at the Chief Minister's residence in Raipur on Tuesday. These employees will serve in 14 districts of the state, most of which are tribal-dominated.

Chief Minister Sai, while congratulating the employees, said that healthy citizens are the foundation of a strong society and a developed Chhattisgarh. The government is striving to ensure that people in cities, villages, tribal areas, and remote areas also receive timely and quality treatment.

208 posts of Staff Nurse, 50 posts of Ward Boy

The 520 employees selected for various cadres within the Health Department include 208 staff nurses, 95 male rural health coordinators, 94 female rural health coordinators, 25 pharmacists, 50 ward boys, and 48 ward ayahs. These appointments will increase human resources for the operation of health services in the respective districts.

The Chief Minister said that patients and their families who visit the hospital have expectations from health workers. Therefore, the staff's responsibility is not limited to simply performing their duties. Sensitive behavior, promptness, and a spirit of service to patients are also essential. He urged health workers to consider their jobs as an opportunity to serve the public and work with honesty and dedication.

There will be further recruitments: Health Minister

Sai said that health facilities have expanded in the 25 years since the state's formation. The government is working to establish new medical colleges, modernize medical facilities, and strengthen the health workforce. The goal is to ensure that geographical distance does not become a barrier to treatment.

Health Minister Shyam Bihari Jaiswal said that the recruitment process for 520 employees was completed transparently and within the stipulated timeframe. Further recruitment for doctor, nurse, and other positions will be conducted as needed.

Deputy Chief Minister Vijay Sharma, ministers Ramvichar Netam, OP Choudhary, Kedar Kashyap, Dayaldas Baghel, Lakhanlal Devangan, Tankaram Verma, Guru Khuswant Saheb and Laxmi Rajwade along with senior officials were present at the programme.
