The study has sampled 60 managers from four paramedical areas, namely nursing, pharmacy, medical laboratory and radiography, in private multi-speciality hospitals in Tirunelveli city, Tamil Nadu using both convenient and judgement sampling techniques. Structured questionnaire prepared by the researcher using Likert's 5-point scale has been used to collect primary data.
