Government has opened up 204 posts nationwide for junior doctors, for which it is seeking applications from students who have completed their five year programmes from either of the medical Universities in the country.
Government is also inviting foreign trained medical doctors who have also met local regulations and are ready for internship to also apply for these posts.
This comes after 530 'intern' doctors were suspended for striking illegally. The Health Services Board (HSB) suspended the doctors with immediate effect after they refused to go back to work earlier this week.
The Health Ministry invited applications from students who have completed their five-year programmes from either of the medical Universities in the country. Foreign-trained medical doctors who have also met local regulations and are ready for internship have been encouraged to also apply for these posts.
