RESUMO

Background:Adequate supply of rehabilitation health workforce is a prerequisite for enhancing access to rehabilitation care. However, there is a lack of comprehensive data regarding the supply of rehabilitation health workers in Saudi Arabia.Aims:To determine the need for, and supply of, rehabilitation workforce, and investigate the relationship between rehabilitation workforce supply and rehabilitation needs in Saudi Arabia.Methodology:This cross-sectional study measured the ratio of physiotherapists and occupational therapists per 1000 population. Data were obtained from the Ministry of Health, family health survey and census data of the General Authority for Statistics and published literature. To assess the need for rehabilitation services, we computed a composite disability index based on 3 variables: count of individuals with physical disabilities, those with chronic diseases, and those aged > 65 years. Determinants of the supply potential were population size, rural population percentage, and physician supply. Data were analysed using descriptive statistics and simple linear regression.Results:The ratios of physiotherapists and occupational therapists working at the Ministry of Health facilities were 0.69 and 0.03 per 10 000 population, respectively. Overall rehabilitation health workforce ratio was 0.73 per 10 000. Supply varied across regions, from 0.4 for Riyadh to 2.5 for Al Jouf. Nine regions exceeded the overall ratio. Rehabilitation need index ranged from 0.144 in Najran to 0.212 in Aseer. No significant associations were found between rehabilitation workforce supply on one hand, and need and other potential determinants on the other hand.Conclusion:The rehabilitation workforce supply in Saudi Arabia surpassed the regional and global averages, but was lower than the average for high-income countries. Workforce distribution varied by region across the country and was not related to need. It is important to consider the need for rehabilitation services and context-specific factors when determining the optimal size and distribution of the rehabilitation health workforce in Saudi Arabia.

RESUMO

Regional Framework to Shape a Health Workforce for the Future of the Western Pacific was adopted by Member States at the seventy-fourth session of the Regional Committee for the Western Pacific in 2023. The framework highlights five strategic areas of action needed: PHC-oriented health workforce policies, increased human resources for health (HRH) stewardship, producing and maintaining quality in HRH, steering the private sector, and managing distribution and productivity in the public sector. It calls on improved HRH data and analytics to accelerate critical health system reforms for the future to achieve Universal Health Coverage and Sustainable Development Goals.

RESUMO

Оваа студија, спроведена во Северна Македонија, се осврна на бариерите кои не дозволуваат ефективен опфат со здравствени услуги и посочи начини за зајакнување на здравствената правичност и на пристапот до квалитетни здравствени услуги. Ставајќи акцент на руралното население и на граѓаните во малите урбани населби, студијата примени повеќе истражувачки методи од типот на анкети, разговори со клучни чинители и дискусии во рамките на фокус групи. Наодите укажуваат на значителни предизвици како што се недоволниот број здравствени работници, особено во помалите места, несоодветна достапност на лекови и медицински помагала, како и недостиг на модерни медицински технологии. Проблемите во делот на пристапноста на здравствените услуги се поврзани со географски и транспортни бариери, кои особено ги погодуваат руралното население, постарите лица и лицата со хронични болести. Финансиските бариери се исто така значителни, со високи износи што се плаќаат од џеб и недоволна покриеност со здравствено осигурување на одредени демографски групи. Довербата во здравствените работници е, општо земено, висока, но проблемите од типот на дискриминација, недоволно почитување на приватноста и родовите норми негативно влијаат на пристапот до здравствени услуги. Студијата предлага решенија како што се подобрување на управувањето, реформирање на примарната здравствена заштита заради надминување на просторните проблеми и социјалните нееднаквости, обезбедување финансиска заштита, градење квалитетна работна сила во здравството и интегрирање на здравствената правичност во Националната стратегија за развој. Овие пристапи имаат за цел надминување на недостатоците во поглед на покриеноста со здравствени услуги и подобрување на здравјето во целина

RESUMO

The Health Labour Market Analysis (HLMA) was undertaken to understand the health workforce situation in Tajikistan to inform the development of a National Health Workforce Action Plan that will contain key policies to improve the availability of health workers to provide quality health care. To guide the analysis, three policy questions were identified through a consultative process led by the Ministry of Health and Social Protection and supported by WHO. The questions related to 1) the availability of health workers in primary health care and ways to attract health workers at primary health care level, 2) the situation and quality of postgraduate medical specialty programme and 3) situation and quality of nursing education. The findings and policy considerations emerging out of the analysis were validated by the Technical Working Group on Health Labour Market Analysis under the Ministry of Health and Social Protection of the Population, Tajikistan. This analysis is being used by the Ministry of Health in evidence-based planning for retention and recruitment of the primary health care workforce, improvements in medical and nursing education, and higher investments in the health workforce.

RESUMO

Во время пандемии COVID-19 руководители, определяющие политику, и широкая общественность признали важный вклад сестринских работников в борьбу с пандемией и непростые условия, в которых им приходилось работать. В результате в Европе и в мире повысилось внимание к стратегической роли сестринских кадров. Высшее сестринское образование способствует обеспечению безопасности пациентов и улучшению результатов для пациентов, групп населения и систем здравоохранения. Расширение сестринских функций определено в качестве одного из эффективных кадровых решений в области здравоохранения, которое позволяет улучшить доступ к медицинским услугам для недостаточно обслуживаемых и проживающих на отдаленных территориях групп населения и решить проблему нехватки персонала в учреждениях первичной медико-санитарной помощи, способствуя тем самым достижению всеобщего охвата услугами здравоохранения. В настоящей технической справке основное внимание уделено изложению механизмов, с помощью которых государства-члены Европейского региона расширяют сестринские функции, и описаны возможные пути содействия процессам реализации соответствующих программ.

RESUMO

This study, conducted in North Macedonia, explored the barriers to effective health service coverage and identified ways to enhance health equity and access to quality health services. With a focus on rural populations and people in small urban settlements, the study employed a mixed-methods approach, including surveys, key informant interviews, and focus group discussions. The findings revealed significant challenges, such as insufficient health workers, particularly in disadvantaged regions, inadequate availability of medicines and medical devices, and underprovision of modern medical technologies. Accessibility issues included geographic and transport barriers, affecting particularly the rural populace, the elderly, and those with chronic conditions. Financial barriers were also notable, with high out-of-pocket expenses and a lack of health insurance coverage among certain demographics. Trust in healthcare professionals was generally high, yet issues such as discrimination, lack of privacy, and gender norms affected health service access. The study proposes solutions like cross-system governance, reforming primary health care to address spatial and social inequalities, ensuring financial protection, developing a robust health workforce, and integrating health equity into the National Development Strategy. These approaches aim to close health service coverage gaps and enhance overall health outcomes.
