Medical doctors were on Tuesday directed by the Federal Government to treat emergencies including gun-shot victims without requesting for police clearance or other restraints.
The order was given by Prof. Isaac Adewole, the Minister of Health, at the swearing in ceremony of 342 foreign trained medical doctors and six dentistry graduates in Abuja.
The foreign graduates were successful in the Medical and Dental Council of Nigeria (MDCN) assessment held from April 6 to 8, which enables them to practice in the country.
Adewole urged them to treat patients on emergency before asking for money, adding that life is more precious than money.
He further advised them to continually practice within the limit of their competence and imbibe global best practice to better their lots in the profession.
