This will ensure Malaysia has sufficient manpower to deal with the growing pandemic.
According to the Malaysia’s Ministry of Health (MoH), these nurses registered to come back into the healthcare service in light of Covid-19.
The Malaysian government is identifying each nurse’s speciality so it can allocate them to specific hospitals and clinics, reported The Malay Mail.
This is to ensure the retired nurses can contribute best in the departments they are most experienced in, ranging from Intensive Care Unit duties to assisting in operating theatres.
According to an MoH representative, Malaysia’s healthcare professionals have been toiling day and night for the past three months to contain the virus.
Hence, they are currently training and dispatching another 2,400 nurses to help out in hospitals and clinics.
Additionally, MoH is aiming to boost their ranks with 2,000 healthcare professionals.
Its respectable that these nurses are coming back to offer help to Malaysia in times of need, even if it means exposing themselves to greater risk.
Truly, our healthcare heroes do deserve our admiration and gratitude.
Kudos to medical staff around the world who are putting their best foot forward to contain the pandemic.
