Considering the heavy patient load in the medical college hospitals across the country, there cannot be set a daily working hours limit for the resident doctors, stated a senior Health Ministry official.
Speaking to Education Times, the official referred to the provision of paid leaves, and weekly offs in the newly released Post Graduate Medical Education Regulations (PGMER), 2023, and said that the concerned Head of the Departments in medical colleges will have to ensure that the doctors do not get exhausted due to work, nor should the lives of patients be put at stake.
