Doctors Flag Staffing and Infrastructure Gaps at New Tamil Nadu Hospitals

Doctors Flag Staffing and Infrastructure Gaps at New Tamil Nadu Hospitals

Doctors in Tamil Nadu are worried about new hospitals.

They say there aren't enough doctors and nurses, and some hospitals don't have the right equipment.

One hospital, made for older people, doesn't have enough doctors.

Another hospital relies on borrowed doctors, and a third hospital's doctors are split between two places.

The doctors say that the government's plans to improve healthcare are being hurt by these problems, like not having enough staff or paying them on time.

The doctors are planning a march to ask for more staff, better equipment, and fairer pay.
