– Dr RamsammyAlthough programmes are streamlined to augment the public health sector with suitably qualified professionals, no effort is spared to ensure that the newly qualified are given the necessary practical guidance.This is according to Minister of Health,Arizona Diamondbacks Fernando Rodney Jersey, Dr Leslie Ramsammy, who revealed that the health sector has several consultants stationed at strategic locations for this very purpose.Almost 30 doctors graduated a few weeks ago and they are now being assimilated into the public health sector, according to the Minister. Most of them, he revealed,Wholesale Jerseys Free Shipping, have been dispatched to the Georgetown Public Hospital Corporation, the New Amsterdam Hospital and a few have been sent to Linden.These facilities, according to the Minister, have ample consultants who are expected to help guide the new doctors to gain “hands on” experience.And the work of the consultants will increase further,Wholesale NFL Jerseys, come next year when another batch of about 300 medical students will return from Cuba.“They are not graduates yet, they are going to come to complete their final year in Guyana and so by 2012 they will be ready for assignment. And they will be rotated so while some of them are rotating through Obstetrics and Gynaecology Department,http://www.airmaxfantasy.us.com/1600-New-Balance/, some will be in Orthopaedics and some will be in Emergency Medicine.”But according to Minister Ramsammy,Wholesale China Jerseys, the area which is of great importance for the primary health care system is that of Obstetrics and Gynaecology and Accident and Emergency. He added that at the moment the health sector does not have enough gynaecologists but that there are enough doctors that can be trained.“If I were to have my choice of going any place and picking up some doctor I would pick up another 10 doctors for Obstetrics and Gynaecology. While we have enough to do the training we don’t have enough to provide all of the services…”However, in the area of emergency medicine, efforts are being made to ensure that there are specialist doctors, Minister Ramsammy revealed. The GPHC has for the first time retained a specialist from the Vanderbilt University in the United States, who is currently here as part of a teaching initiative.“That will be a fabulous training to get on. So I think that whilst we are yet to fully solve one important problem of having enough doctors to send across the country I think we are basically on our way to solving it,David Njoku Jersey, probably much faster than anybody thinks we could have.”Another issue of importance that must be addressed, the Minister said, is the quality of the service that is provided. And this is certainly not because “they are not doing what they were trained to do at a high quality. It is that we need to train them at another level and this is the kind of rotations we are talking about.”The new doctors are also expected to benefit from the expertise of doctors from Cuba who, according to the Minister, will provide some of the training that is required. In essence there will be more than 50 specialists who will be providing support to new doctors countrywide, the Minister added. |
