Skilled workforce: key to strengthening India's rural health

The Hinduja Foundation advocates for collaboration between government, private sector, and civil society to empower healthcare workers and improve access for rural communities.

India's healthcare system still faces several obstacles, particularly in rural areas despite recent major improvements.

Millions of people in rural India lack access to quality healthcare due to the stark differences in healthcare facilities and medical professional availability between urban and rural areas.

The severe lack of qualified healthcare professionals in rural regions, where about 65% of India's population lives, is one of the main causes of this disparity.

Building hospitals and supplying technology is not enough to improve India's rural health system; instead, a trained and driven healthcare workforce that can provide high-quality treatment at the community level must be established.

To guarantee that the rural population has access to necessary healthcare services, a workforce that is both well-trained and well-supported is vital.

The Need for a Skilled Healthcare Workforce in Rural India Rural India faces a severe shortage of healthcare professionals, including doctors, nurses, paramedics, and healthcare workers.

According to a 2020 Ministry of Health and Family Welfare report, India faces a shortfall of over 3 million healthcare workers, and the shortage is particularly pronounced in rural areas.
