1. Context/ factors effecting HWF demand
  • Change in demo./ epidemiology
  • Elderly increase up to 10 , 15 in 10 yrs
  • Increase in chronic diseases
  • Increase in accident/ emergency
  • Reform
  • universal coverage, increase utilisation
  • civil service reform, limit number of HRH
  • existence of organization promoting health
    promotion

5
Health workforce (HWF) problems
  • Mismatch between Supply and Demand
  • Mal-distribution, rural vs urban

supply
Demand
6
Limitations of HWF planning
  • Contextual changes, effecting HFW
  • Inadequate evidence-based information
  • Emphasize on number rather than quality and
    planning process, limited stakeholders
  • Lack of area-based planning, not related to local
    needs
  • Plan for each professional separately
  • Methods for planning is limited to population
    ratio

7
2. Objectives and Approach
  • to assess the health workforce supply and demand
    and to develop recommendations to redress the
    mismatch between health workforce supply and
    demand.
  • Approaches
  • Develop the HFW forecasting model
  • Collect baseline information
  • Assess supply and demand (requirement)
  • Develop recommendations for HFW planning

8
Baseline data for HWF forecasting Model
  • Model assess HFW requirement base on health needs
    and health demand approach
  • Population by age group
  • Sickness and service utilization by age group
  • Health facilities
  • HWF, number, distribution, loss rate and gain
    rate
  • Productivity and staffing norm

4. Summary
  • HWF problems
  • Shortage of doctors, nurses and PT
  • Surplus of dental personnel, if not well job
    allocation
  • Inequitable distribution, esp primary vs
    secondary care
  • Retention in rural, esp, primary care

22
Recommendations
  • Area-based planning with HFW mechanism at local
    and national level
  • Increase production, particularly
  • Local recruitment, regional training and hometown
    placement esp, nurses, PT
  • Increase production of auxialies, i.e., PT
    auxiliaries and plan for their career path
  • Appropriate task-shifting
  • Doctors and nurses curative
  • Nurses and public health prevention
  • Public health and nurse vs VHV and community HWF

23
Recommendation (cont)
  • 4. Shift from curative care to health promotion
    and prevention at community levels
  • 5. Strengthen community health workforce, esp,
    VHV , aged care providers and other volunteers
  • 6. Consider appropriate incentives (financial and
    non-financial) to attract and retain doctors,
    nurses, PH and PT at rural.
  • 7. Strengthen effective referal system btw health
    centers and hospital including sharing resources
