513 charge nurses have assumed their duty in Lahore General Hospital
Lahore: January 30: As many as 513 charge nurses have assumed their duty in Lahore General Hospital after their selection by the Punjab Public Service Commission.

    “The recruitment of these nurses has provided employment to hundreds of families and it would enhance the standard of healthcare in the hospital,” said Post Graduate Medical Institute and Lahore General Hospital Principal Prof Ghias-un-Nabi Tayyab, according to a handout issued on Sunday.

    The principal said nursing administration has been directed to arrange lectures for newly-recruited nurses on daily basis to sensitise them about government health policies, infection control, campaign against dengue, polio and other diseases, discipline and humbleness with patients. He said educational documents of newly-selected nurses would also be verified from their educational boards concerned at the earliest.

    The principal informed that in the history of Pakistan, nurses have been recruited through Public Service Commission for the first time. This policy of the Punjab government is aimed at elimination of culture of nepotism and recommendation and to uphold merit and transparency. Chief Minister Shahbaz Sharif has recently announced Rs 9,000 per month as the risk allowance for charge and head nurses which is a clear evidence of recognition of their services at government level, he added.

    The principal said that now it is the responsibility of nurses to work with dedication and devotion to help ailing humanity and to fulfill the expectations of government, masses, patients and their attendants.The news.
