Re: Doctors in India launch nationwide strike after trainee is raped and murdered
Dear Editor
Violence against Health carers
Violence against doctors, nurses and medical staff in hospitals is a persisting problem. Particularly female healthcare workers are especially vulnerable to these attacks compared to their male colleagues.
These attacks are not only a crime against one individual, a doctor or a gender-based violence, it is also an attack on the very essence of humanity, is what I feel. Women are not safe in their homes and their workplaces, and this blanket of unsafety pervades everything.
A recent attack on a woman doctor in hospital in eastern India has sparked widespread protest by the medical fraternity all over India.
Safe and secured work place with monitoring surveillance system is most important in hospitals to help the health care providers and the patients.
Safety in the workplace, safety for women in the workplace or safety of any professional in their workplace is of paramount importance. To ensure this, it is the need of the hour to have a central law for the protection of healthcare professionals.
These steps may help to prevent a repeat of such incidents in the near future in hospitals.
