Concern has been voiced by stakeholders regarding the potential impact of the two-day-a-week leave on the healthcare industry. Concern and interest have been voiced by stakeholders over the potential impact that the two-day leave arrangement may have on services such as OPD.

Medical Sector Gets Disturbed by Holidays

On Thursday, the Ministry of Health and Population will undertake a conversation with the relevant parties to determine whether or not to allow employees in the health industry to take the day off on Sunday. The Ministry of Health and Population has released a notice in which it has written to the directors of significant hospitals, as well as trade unions working in health, and professional groups, asking for discussion. The notice was published after the Ministry of Health and Population issued it.

As a result of the resolution made by the Council of Ministers on May 22, the federal government will begin observing public holidays on both Saturdays and Sundays, making for a total of two days off per week. There has been no consideration given to whether or not the outpatient department (OPD) of the hospital will be open or closed on Sunday. Regarding a two-day leave, there are a few different schools of thought. The majority of people in this country believe that this choice will come as a surprise to them. Patients who have been waiting for a long time for surgery, patients who have been scheduled for an examination, and patients who have traveled a great distance could be in danger.

On the other hand, the Nepal Medical Association expressed its satisfaction with the decision made by the government. According to the association, the decision made by the government will be implemented in the health sector because doing so will contribute to maintaining a positive morale among all of the doctors and health professionals.
