Hisar (Haryana) [India], September 28: The healthcare sector is witnessing rapid transformation with the increasing use of technology in diagnosis, treatment, emergency care, cardiac services, renal care and patient management. Alongside doctors and nurses, trained allied healthcare professionals are playing an increasingly important role in hospitals, diagnostic centres, laboratories, trauma facilities and specialised healthcare institutions.
Recognising the growing demand for skilled professionals in these areas, Om Sterling Global University (OSGU), Hisar, has opened admissions for the academic session 2026-27 in a range of Allied Healthcare and Paramedical programmes. The programmes provide students opportunities to pursue specialised education and develop practical skills in areas ranging from cardiovascular technology and emergency care to dialysis and health information management.
Allied healthcare professionals form an important part of the modern healthcare delivery system. Depending on their area of specialisation, their responsibilities can include assisting in diagnostic procedures, operating specialised medical equipment, supporting emergency and critical care teams, conducting laboratory investigations and assisting healthcare teams in specialised areas such as cardiac care, renal care, radiology and rehabilitation.
OSGU's School of Health Sciences offers programmes at diploma, undergraduate and postgraduate levels. Among the programmes highlighted for the 2026-27 session are Cardiovascular Technology (CVT), Emergency Medical Technology (EMT), Dialysis Therapy Technology (DTT), ECG and ECHO Technology, Medical Secretarial and Transcription, and Health Information Management (HIM).
Cardiovascular Technology provides a specialised pathway for students interested in cardiac healthcare. Graduates can find opportunities in government and private hospitals, cardiac centres, medical colleges and specialised heart-care hospitals. They can work as Cardiovascular Technologists, Cardiac Care Technologists, Cath Lab Technologists and ECG Technologists, assisting healthcare teams in ECG, echocardiography, cardiac catheterisation, angiography and other cardiovascular procedures. The field also offers opportunities in cardiovascular research, clinical trials and medical equipment companies.
Emergency Medical Technology is another area where trained professionals play an important role in emergency and trauma care. Career opportunities exist in emergency departments, trauma centres, ambulance services and critical-care units. Professionals can assist in the assessment, stabilisation and management of patients during medical and traumatic emergencies and provide pre-hospital care during ambulance transportation. Their training may include patient monitoring, airway management, resuscitation and life-support procedures.
Dialysis Therapy Technology offers specialised career opportunities in hospitals, dialysis centres, medical colleges, nephrology departments and renal-care facilities. Dialysis Technologists and related professionals assist healthcare teams in providing haemodialysis and other renal replacement therapies. Their responsibilities may include patient preparation and monitoring, infection prevention, equipment maintenance and supporting the safe operation of dialysis systems.
The growing digitisation of healthcare has also created opportunities in Health Information Management. Professionals in this field can work with Electronic Health Records, patient data, medical documentation, health information systems, clinical coding and healthcare statistics. Career opportunities are available in hospitals, medical colleges, healthcare organisations, insurance companies and health information centres. The field also offers avenues for higher education and research in health informatics and healthcare management.
