Regarding the imparting of different degree and diploma courses in Paramedical Sciences, the Chief Secretary asked about the functionality of the newly established nursing colleges and paramedic schools in different districts of J&K. He enquired about the kind of physical infrastructure available at each such facility along with the presence of faculty/tutors imparting training there.

Dulloo observed that since the Department has introduced these courses admitting hundreds of students each year, it is therefore its primary responsibility to ensure their professional upbringing and fruitful engagement for the duration of the courses. He also reviewed the status of infrastructure and manpower in the institutions.

The Chief Secretary also took stock of the recruitment rules, recruitment process and scope of career development in the courses offered by the paramedic schools. He called for taking measures to augment the necessary infrastructure and arranging of manpower to make such institutions viable and sustainable in long run.

In his presentation the Secretary H&ME, Dr Syed Abid Rasheed Shah highlighted different achievements, ongoing works and plans of the department regarding pacing-up the tendering process in JKMSCL and upgradation of facilities in different paramedical institutions here.

While giving overview about the working of the corporation, he gave out that the Department is seriously contemplating on cutting down the time taken in tendering process considerably. He also revealed that the capacity of PHCs/HWCs is built to include them as users on DVDMS portal.

Regarding the functioning of Paramedical Institutions, he informed the meeting that most of such institutions had been established in last few years. He asserted that the Department is continuously working on making these institutions better and productive with each passing year.

It was given out that currently the Department operates 28 B.Sc Nursing Colleges, 19 Paramedical Institutions including those in private sector.
