Meanwhile, the interns are requested to bring their hospital case sheet with barcode stickers, hepatitis vaccination card, and/or titre values, depending on the status of their vaccination.
Moreover, all the Heads of Departments are requested to circulate the circular among the interns and allow them to attend the programme. It is also requested that they should not be put on night duty from 2nd February to 4th February 2025 and all the Unit Heads are informed to release the trainees on time so that they can attend all the sessions on time.
