In a significant move to enhance the safety of healthcare professionals, the Odisha government has introduced a comprehensive new policy. This initiative follows the recent safety measures implemented at RG Kar Medical College and Hospital, aimed at creating a secure work environment for medical staff.
Dress Code Regulations
The new policy mandates a strict dress code for healthcare workers. This regulation is designed to ensure that all staff adhere to a uniform standard, minimizing potential risks and promoting a professional atmosphere within healthcare facilities.
Installation of CCTVs
To bolster security, Odisha will install Closed-Circuit Television (CCTV) systems in key areas of healthcare facilities. The strategic placement of these cameras will help monitor activities, deter potential threats, and provide a safer environment for both staff and patients.
Mandatory Safety Audits
Regular safety audits will be conducted as part of the new policy. These audits will assess the effectiveness of safety measures, identify potential hazards, and ensure compliance with the latest safety standards. The goal is to continuously improve safety protocols and address any issues promptly.
By rolling out these measures, Odisha aims to set a precedent for healthcare worker safety. The new policy reflects a commitment to improving working conditions and ensuring a secure environment for those on the front lines of healthcare.
