Health minister wants to train minor staffers

Health Minister Maithripala Sirisena has made a decision to offer training to minor staffers attached to state hospitals to obtain a better service from them. There are over 16,000 employees in the minor staff of the state health sector, a Health Ministry spokesman said.

According to the spokesman, minor staff members in the state health sector do not carry out duties such as cleaning toilets, wash rooms as such duties are carried out by private sector cleaning staffs hired by hospitals.

Minor staffers carry out other duties such as assisting other health staff, he said.

Minor staffers do not have any knowledge or training on handling patients.

They assist other health staffers such as doctors, nurses to carry out their duties. They also assist patients and carry them into ambulances and take them out. These tasks demand skilled labour to ensure the safety of patients, he said.

State hospital Directors will be given powers to train their minor staffers. They will be provided in service training on relevant duties, he said.
