The management of the University of Medical Sciences Teaching Hospital Ondo State has revealed the new pay plan for newly employed staff at the hospital.
In an exclusive interview with the media team, the Chief Medical Director, Dr Oluwole Ige revealed that medical staff who have recently been employed have been receiving their salaries right from day one of assumption of duty.
He said this new policy was put in place to encourage medical personnel into the work force in the State. He said the Ondo State governor is committed to ensuring wholesome healthcare for the good people of Ondo State and Nigeria in general. By this measure, he said a number of doctors, nurses and other healthcare staff have already begun to enjoy regular remuneration.
The CMD, Dr O Ige further encouraged fresh graduates seeking internship to apply as all suitably qualified candidates will be engaged. In particular, he emphasized areas of deficiency such as medical doctors and nurses among others.
Post NYSC healthcare workers and others are reassured by the new policy (which has been in effect since the turn of 2022) that they will not be owed any arrears.
