Paramedical Council Act in the Offing for Indian Capital
Officials said the relevant bill would be tabled in the New Delhi Assembly shortly.
“There is no Act or Council to regulate the hiring or functioning of paramedics, whether in the city or country. There is no way of ascertaining the work record or conduct of a particular paramedic,” the official noted.
The proposed Council will accredit operation theatre (OT) technicians, OT assistants, laboratory technicians, laboratory assistants, X-Ray technicians, ECG technicians, darkroom assistants and Central Sterilisation Department assistants. All institutions will have to register with the Council that will issue certificates only after professionals have worked for fixed period.
“The need for this council was felt, as we need to hire at least 1,000 paramedics in the next year. There are over 350 posts of paramedics open. Also, the 110 ambulances we are going to acquire will require six such paramedics in each vehicle,” said the official.
The official was referring to the increased emergency facilities that would be required as preparations begin for the Commonwealth games to be hosted by New Delhi in October 2010.
The government is also planning to protect doctors from aggrieved patients and their relatives.
Andhra Pradesh in southern India recently passed an ordinance to protect doctors after a series of incidents in which doctors were set upon by relatives of patients who died despite treatment.

The council is not yet formed till now. I don't know if this website is being monitored by the govt. or not, but what I would like to inform the government is that the hospital cannot run without the paramedics. So, if this bill is not passed within this year [2012], why not have a strike all over India?! Let them run the hospital without Paramedics (if they can).

FROM 2008, THIS IS 2012 AND MORE THAN 4 YEARS ALL PARAMEDICAL PERSONNEL FROM WITHIN INDIA AND ABROAD ARE JUST WAITING AND WAITING,
NOTHING HAS HAPPENED
NOTHING WILL BE DONE FOR THIS IMPORTANT GROUP
THE COUNCILS ARE ONLY FOR DOCTORS AND NURSES
MAY BE IN 2022 THERE WILL BE HOPES AGAIN FOR PARAMEDICAL COUNCIL OF INDIA

It is a very good step for the development of Technicians (paramedical staff), as all of us are working in medical field since last so many years but there was no counsil for paramedical staff (like X-Ray,OT, Lab, CSSD, ECG Tech. etc.) and there are so many diparaties in the pay scales Now these can be short it out by the counsil. But this counsil needs to be implement at the earliest. SYED FAIZAN AMIN LABORATORY TECHNOLOGIST

It is a excellent thought,i am a paramedic(3 years) trained from Apollo hospital,hyderabad.And also from stanford school of Emergency Medicine Dept. i am working in GVK-EMRI,HYd as a faculty for osmania university Advanced PG Diploma in Emergency Care.But we can not treat by giving life saving medicines in life threatening situations of patients.So GOVT.should set up Accrdiation board for Paramedics to save most of young generation,who are back bone of our country.Anand Kumar,
