Recommendations of National Task Force @NMC_IND for Mental Well Being (of Doctors/Medical Students) are released :

1) Residents work no more than 74 hours per week, with no more than 24 hours at a stretch. One day off per week, One 24 hours duty & 10 hours shift for remaining five days.

2) Strict adherence to NMC regulations for a weekly one day off is crucial.

(It's imperative to recognize that PGs and Interns primarily serve educational purposes rather than filling gaps in healthcare staffing. 3) Medical colleges could consider granting 10 days Vacation at least once a year to both UG and PG Students on rotational basis.

Finally,
Official Gazette published by Government of India regarding NExT.

Putting important points in this thread :

1) IMGs, FMGs and Doctors who want to join any PG Courses in country have to go through this exam.

2) 50% (50 out of 100) is required in all 6 Papers to pass… twitter.com/i/web/status/1… 3) NEET PG will be continued for previous batches till NExT will replace it for admission in PG Courses (Will be decided by NMC)

4) NExT will be held May or November or any month decided by NMC.

Regarding "Compulsory Covid-19 Duty to MBBS Students of Gujarat" which was ordered by Gujarat Gov. and Students went into HC for Justice.

Today, Gujarat HC gave Final Verdict in Favour of State Government and also ordered Gov. to provide Basic Necessities. 1/n Verdict is given by Bench(Headed by Chief Justice).

Some Main Points :

1)State Gov. is badly in need of Corona Warriors.

2)No discrimination on name of Government and Private Medical College Students.If other states can't make it Compulsory,it doesn't mean that Guj. can't. 2/n

#BreakingNews
Gov. of Gujarat issued an order for All MBBS,BDS,BAMS,BHMS,Nursing and
Physio. Students(From 1st Year to Final) to join Covid-19 Duty Compulsorily!

Will this help or affect patient care?
@DeepalTrevedie @AtulTiwari90 @thanda_ghosh @SidDholakia @aravindchaudhri My Personal Opinion on this is :

They won't call all students at a time. They will call only where situation is worst and they need more health workers.

As this is against MCI Guidelines ,they released this order on name of Governor. So that no one will ask them!

#UPDATE

Various office bearers of @IMA_MSNIndia talked with VC/Faculty Dean of their Universities. Most of them denied to share information about Meeting with MCI as it's internal matter and instructed us to wait for Guidelines from MCI which will be put on Website.

1/2 2 of them(VC/Faculty Dean) told that "Exam Schedule which was declared by University will be same. All Exams are to be held as planned before. No changes in Exam Schedule till official guidelines from MCI."

P.S. : This news is not official. We received this from University. 2/2
