Journal Title: Journal of Psychiatric Nursing - Year 2019, Vol 8, Issue 2

Abstract

Health is a global priority. Health care needs of a country are met through health-related manpower, infrastructure and resources to run and coordinate between these two entities. However, in developing and underdeveloped countries, there is gross scarcity of resources, manpower as well as infrastructure, which adversely affects the health care delivery. In order to compensate the manpower deficits in health care delivery, bridge course has been proposed in India. This article critically appraises the steps to initiate bridge courses in medical education in India.
