Why renowned hospital including government hospitals are harassing physiotherapy doctors
Recently I had a discussion over the salary received by physical therapist on contract in biggest government hospital in Delhi.
To my surprise I come to know that those people who are working in this sector are getting only 20,000 rupees.
The salary is not given by the government but it is the amount they are getting from the contractor, who got contact of physiotherapy services in the hospital.
Butt in my view this is the harassment, if they are getting so less of the salary from working a hospital of repute.
Regular government employee or physiotherapist who are working in same scenario are getting four fold salary from the hospital for the same work this is leading frustration and poor services to the patients in hospitals.
Above all this is also degrading the level of services in physiotherapy overall degrading the profession.

This contractual format is exploiting physiotherapist in all over India even I have seen this trend in the states and medical colleges of Himachal also.
We as a physiotherapy community should raise our voice on this so that the physiotherapist don't get exploited in hospitals and get a respectable salary.
