Abstract

The current report deliberates the challenges encountered by the various sectors of healthcare workers while executing their services. The study is confined to Indian state of rural Maharashtra precisely involving the small town Masur and Karad city of Satara district. Here, we tried to better comprehend the daily problems confronted by the health workers while rendering their services especially in rural area. For the purpose we met with the various health workers including physician, nurse, blood bank founder, and the pharmacist. All of them highlighted the problems they dealt with while rendering their daily services and also emphasized on implications of covid 19 on their duties. Niti Ayog has already warned center regarding the possibility of third wave of covid 19 by the end of September 2021 with 4-5 lakhs daily cases. Indeed, this is alarming and may curtail current health care system. Taking into account the daily challenges confronted by the healthcare personals and possible damage by covid 19, the current heathcare system especially in rural Maharashtra need a substantial boost.
