Unregistered Lab Technicians Raise Safety Concerns at Shatabdi Hospital

There are five lab technicians at Shatabdi Hospital in Mumbai who are not registered with the Maharashtra Paramedical Council.

This is a problem because they are handling important cases in the emergency lab, which could be risky for patients.

A health activist complained about this, and the council told the hospital to make sure all technicians are registered.

The hospital now has to decide whether to enforce the rules strictly or find a way to keep the experienced technicians who might not have the right qualifications.

The technicians who are not registered have applied for registration but might face issues because their degrees are not from approved institutions.

The law says all lab technicians must be registered, and practicing without registration is a serious offense.
