RML Hospital lengthens OT Timings to conduct more procedures in single day

Dr Sarvesh Pandey, Vice President, RDA, said, "RDA RML welcomes the order by our Honourable Medical Superintendent Dr Nandini Duggal which keeps the patient health on priority by increasing the OT time but at the same time would like to request her to kindly maintain the working hours (48hrs per week) of residents as per the Supreme Court guidelines as they toil day and night for the betterment of patient by overlooking their own health."

"Would also request to fill the vacant seats of doctors at the same time which will eventually be beneficial for both patients and doctors," he added.

The RML hospital come under the central government and caters to about 10,000 patients in a single day. The hospital recently established Out Patient Department ( OPD) services on Sundays, seeing an increased burden of patients since October 2021.
