Shillong, Nov 18: Eighty-eight doctors from Meghalaya have completed a six-month specialized training program in Tamil Nadu, with the third batch being honoured at a felicitation ceremony recently.

This initiative, part of an inter-state partnership, focuses on enhancing healthcare delivery in Meghalaya, particularly in reducing maternal and infant mortality rates.

The training program focused on critical skills such as Comprehensive Emergency Obstetric Care, Life-Saving Anesthetic Techniques, and Ultrasonography. “This coordinated effort aims to bring infant and maternal mortality rates in Meghalaya below the national average,” said a senior health official.

Supporting Meghalaya’s flagship programs, such as the Chief Minister’s Safe Motherhood Scheme (CM-SMS), the training seeks to improve maternal and infant health outcomes, particularly in remote areas. This collaboration underscores the commitment of both states to capacity building and knowledge exchange, with Tamil Nadu’s advanced medical institutions playing a pivotal role in driving progress.

The initiative was born out of a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) signed in 2022 between the governments of Meghalaya and Tamil Nadu. Under this agreement, Tamil Nadu provides essential training to Meghalaya’s healthcare professionals to bridge skill gaps and upgrade Community Health Centers (CHCs) into functional First Referral Units (FRUs).
