Hyderabad: In order to create employment opportunities for the unemployed while bridging the gap of paramedical staff shortage in hospitals, the Rajiv Education and Employment Mission Andhra Pradesh (REEMAP) has joined hands with Medical Education Research Centre for Education Technologies (MEdRC) to train youth in paramedical courses.
According to healthcare experts, AP lacks around 6.5 lakh paramedical staff, including nurses, technicians, and emergency assistants. As part of the programme, 240 unemployed people with basic educational qualifications will be trained by MEdRC in basics of medical care, including patient assistance and healthcare systems. In the first phase of the pilot project, the students will be trained over a span of three months in Hyderabad and Mahbubnagar. |
