So low standard?
Then it is time for
MOH to send nurses to train to be proper nurse practitioners. Most NPs in other countries are very experienced nurses who work in ICU and ER. Are lecturers in Nursing school. Level of knowledge and competence is comparable to a Family Physician.
But they are paid less than FPs.
This will save
MOH money in the long run.
No need have so many FPs. Have a handful to be Clinician/Managers. The bulk of the work can be done by NPs at lower salaries. I am referring to OPS.
