Chandigarh: Under the proactive leadership of Chief Minister, Nayab Singh Saini, Haryana has taken a bold step to enhance healthcare by recruiting 430 Medical Officers and issuing appointment letters to every selected candidate.
This large-scale recruitment promises to energise Haryana’s public healthcare system, bringing specialist doctors to District and Sub-Divisional Civil Hospitals, while MBBS Medical Officers will reinforce care at Community and Primary Health Centres.
Additional Chief Secretary, Health and Family Welfare, Dr. Sumita Misra, said the recruitment process for 430 Medical Officers had been completed and appointment letters were issued to all the selected candidates on Monday. The letters will be dispatched to the candidates from today onwards and are expected to reach them shortly.
The new recruits bring expertise from a broad spectrum of vital medical fields, further expanding specialist services in government health institutions. Dr. Misra emphasized that the postings are carefully designed to maximize the impact of the new medical workforce and bolster specialist services at secondary-level government health institutions.
Specialist doctors are now stationed at District and Sub-Divisional Civil Hospitals where they are most needed, a move set to enhance specialist care and make medical treatment more accessible for patients at government hospitals.
At the grassroots, MBBS Medical Officers are filling vacant positions at CHCs and PHCs, a step that will boost doctor availability and bring quality healthcare closer to both urban and rural communities.
Dr. Sumita Misra said the completion of the recruitment process marks an important step towards filling Medical Officer positions in the State Health Department and strengthening the medical workforce across Haryana.
