Stipend for nursing graduates during internship hiked




Fresh nursing graduates under compulsory internship in the government medical colleges in the State will get an increased monthly stipend of Rs.6,000 in future.


In a press release issued here on Tuesday, Finance Minister K.M. Mani said his department had given sanction for increasing their stipend from the present Rs.4,500, which was less than one-third of the salary of a freshly appointed staff nurse.


It was from last year that the government had made one year’s internship compulsory for those graduating from the government nursing colleges, the press release said.
