The following study has been focused on evaluating the impact of the pandemic on the workers associated with the Indian healthcare sector. This study aims to elaborate on the role healthcare workers took during the pandemic as well as the issues and challenges faced by the workers while providing essential health services. The Literature Review section has explored several important aspects associated with the role, challenges and government actions of healthcare professionals during the pandemic.

The findings revealed that the pandemic has presented crucial challenges for the workers associated with the healthcare sector in India. The workers have faced physical, mental as well as psychological stress and a significant number of healthcare professionals have been infected and died too.
