According to the World Health Organization (WHO), “Allied health personnel are personnel who have specific connections with the art and science of health care and are recognized as members of health team in the national health system. They are educated, with different levels of professional qualifications, in a recognized or accredited health or healthrelated or academic Institution".
Allied & healthcare professionals include individuals involved with the delivery of health or related services, with expertise in therapeutic, diagnostic, curative, preventive and rehabilitative interventions. They work in interdisciplinary health teams including physicians, nurses and public health officials to promote, protect, treat and/or manage a person’s physical, mental, social, emotional and environmental health and holistic well-being.
Enrollment:
This is a provisional
measure taken by the Government of India to reach out to all the allied and
healthcare professionals in the country so that they may be effectively tracked
as part of the overall HRH data available with the Government of India. This
will help the government to estimate the numbers and streams of allied and
healthcare existing in the country.
Please
note the enrollment does not constitute a professional license or a
registration number at this time. A unique reference number will be provided
upon your successful enrollment which will be used in the future for any
professional regulatory or standardizing activities undertaken by the
Government of India.
