Demand to appoint doctors for night shifts at primary health centers
A call has been made to the government to appoint doctors for night shifts at primary health centers to handle medical emergencies effectively.
A demand has been raised to ensure that doctors are available for night duty at all primary health centers across Tamil Nadu.
Currently, doctors are only available during the day. In regions like Mayiladuthurai and Sirkazhi, patients have to travel 10 to 20 km to reach government hospitals during emergencies. It is requested that the state government take steps to ensure round-the-clock doctor availability at all primary health centers.
