LAHORE:
Provincial Minister for Labour and Human Resource Ansar Majeed Khan has directed the Punjab Employees Social Security Institution (PESSI) to immediately fill the vacancies of doctors, nurses and paramedical staff in its hospitals across the province.
The minister expressed these views during a briefing regarding the procurement of Electro Medical Equipment in hospitals and medical units of PESSI on Wednesday. He said a proposal for the resumption of the private practice of doctors in the social security hospitals in evening shifts was also under consideration. However, such a move would only be made after ensuring that the treatment process of labourers and their dependents was least affected.
PESSI Medical Adviser Dr Nasir Jamal Pasha briefed the minister regarding the issues of social security hospitals and said the institution has initiated the process of procurement of electromedical equipment in different phases.
