A step towards AYUSH-nursing

AYUSH is keen in observing the shortage of nursing staff in Ayurvedic Hospitals. Even though the specialist massagers and other skilled staff are not available at the demand, the step considered to provide Auxiliary Nurse Midwives (ANM)/ General Nursing & Midwifery (GNM) is a good step. But with an Open University assistance is discouraging. The existing Ayurveda institutions can be included in this regard along with the rest of paramedical staff training under the supervision of CCIM.  The full story from the source is as follows.

Dept of Ayush to introduce Ayush-Nursing from July, 2012 in 20 Ayurvedic Colleges across country [Abhidnya Matwankar, Mumbai- Friday, March 30, 2012, 08:00 Hrs  (IST)]

Aiming to provide proper quality care to the patients undergoing treatment under ayurvedic system of medicine, the department of Ayush in cooperation with School of Health Sciences, Indira Gandhi National Open University (IGNOU), Delhi will introduce a certificate course in Ayush-Nursing  (Ayurveda) for Auxiliary Nurse Midwives (ANM)/ General Nursing & Midwifery (GNM) from July this year across country. IGNOU is also planning to begin certificate programmes in Unani and Homoeopathy in the coming years.
This programme is designed to discuss the current issues and trends in Ayurveda, to develop skills to provide nursing care to patients admitted to hospitals providing care through the ayurvedic systems of medicine, to develop understanding and depth in performing ayurvedic nursing skills and to apply knowledge of Ayurveda in diverse settings- hospital and community.
“As per government of India’s report on Human Resources for the health sector, there is no ANM trained nurses in Ayurveda.  So the GOI along with IGNOU has decided to start this programme to provide certified quality professionals in this field. IGNOU with its large network has the capability of catering to the needs of a large number of aspirants,” said M Rajesh, regional director of IGNOU, Mumbai.
Prof. Bimla Kapoor, director of School of Health Sciences, IGNOU, Delhi said that this course will be conducted by IGNOU in 20 Ayurvedic Colleges throughout the country as identified by Department of Ayush as Programme Study Centres. “In our country we have around 20 centres which includes: Government Ayurveda College, Thiruvananthapuram, Govt Ayurveda College Mysore, RA Podar Medical College (AYU), Mumbai, Ayurvedic & Unani Tibbia College, New Delhi, Rajiv Gandhi Ayurvedic College, Paprola, J B Roy Govt Ayurvedic College, West Bengal, SDM Ayurvedic College, Udupi, Govt. Ayurveda College, Nagpur, etc.. which have intake capacity to admit 30 students having ANM/GNM qualification and already in service,” she added.
Prof. Kapoor added that GoI has mentioned that the required centres should have 30 candidates in service for ANM/GNM in Ayurveda Hospitals across the country for training at the Ayurveda colleges. Although this course is designed for all ANM/GNMs even then preference for the first year may be given to ANM/GNM employed in Ayurveda Hospitals in the states. In case of non-availability of ANM/GNM in the Ayurveda Hospitals then the interested ANM/GNM candidate in the allopathic hospitals can be nominated to go for training in this course.
The minimum duration of the programme is for 6 months and the maximum duration is for two years, and also the students will be given hands on training by the existing Ayurveda faculty in identified centres.

Exposure of medical graduates in modern medicine to Ayurvedic medicine

Patawardhan, B., Joglekar, V., Pathak, N. and Vaidya, A., Curr. Sci., 2010, 100,476–483

Patwardhan et al.1 have suggested how to catalyse Ayurvedic renaissance. We seem to have forgotten the great contributions of ancient Indian savants in various fields of physical and biological sciences. Western hegemony in education did not allow ancient discoveries by Indian savants to be widely known. Democritus overshadowed Kanad in atomic theory, Copernicus and Galileo overshadowed Aryabhatta in our understanding of the heliocentric universe and that the Earth is round not flat. Aryabhatta also said: ‘Chala Prithvi Sthira Bhati Kadamba Kesara bat!’, i.e. Earth which is round like the Kadamba flower (Anthocephalus sp.) is moving though it appears stationary. [Read more]

Education Mafia

The Mafia (also known as Cosa Nostra) is a criminal syndicate that emerged in the mid 19th century in Sicily. On the name Mafia video game is made in 2002. We come across many word linked to Mafia, viz. Coal Mafia, Silicon mafia, Land Mafia, etc. Now we get another talented criminal syndicate – Educational Mafia too.

Institutions are mushroomed as the Educational policy is changed and wish to offer better education for all. This became a Golden opportunity for the enthusiastic developers to put their money in this area. Infrastructure is shown but the teachers are at shortage. The hunt for the candidates eligible and not interested to work institutionally but eligible got started. The criterion for the appointment is low remuneration. Such people are not interested for regular working and teaching. Ultimately different groups of working patterns are developed. Apart from Regular employee, part time weekly, monthly and yearly employees are in the force. In this yearly employee appears in front of the inspection committee to act as employee and the rest of cadre is scheduled accordingly. The students are adjusted to pay the university fee, college fee, special fee, external and internal examiner fee, etc. Student is in trouble from the date of incorporation in to degree, till the day of awarding, many hidden fee, which are not in audit purview.

On the other hand Teachers are submitting fake certificates of Experience to get the privilege. The Universities are favoring the Organizations, allowing them with substandard staff even. Every where it looks an organized situations and many eligible are at loss.

Long back, there is a comment on the Family and Husband relationships. At present to develop the career or under circumstances, Husbands became week-end, Month-end and Year end Husbands. The same patterns are seen under the shadow of the Educational Mafia. No government is able to prevent these roots which are spreading a long deep. The ultimate result is a poor quality education and week India. Where we are going?
