Abstract

Zdravstveni radnici su svi djelatnici kojima je najvažnija djelatnost poboljšanje zdravlja. U sveprisutnom razdoblju razvoja tehnologije i produljenju očekivanoga trajanja života postoji povećana potreba za zdravstvenim djelatnicima. Uz povećanu potrebu postoji i neravnomjerna raspodjela zdravstvenih djelatnika između ruralnih, u kojima se živi gotovo polovina svjetskog stanovništva, i urbanih sredina. Pronalazak činitelja koji bi povećali interes prema radu u ruralnim sredinama postaje ozbiljan zadatak. Rješavanju tog zadatka pristupilo se na razini donositelja zdravstvene politike kroz formiranje određenih poticajnih mjera kao što su: osiguranje smještaja, prijevoza, dodatna edukacija, stalno profesionalno usavršavanje, dodatni bodovi pri odabiru specijalizacije ili djelovanju na razini sveučilišta koja posebno organiziranim kolegijima nastoje povećati znanja i iskustva. Upravo manjak iskustva, znanja i vještina kao u strah od rada u sredinama u kojima nedostaju tehnologije i profesionalna podrška smanjuju želju za rad u ruralnim sredinama. S druge strane postoje određeni čimbenici koji imaju značajni utjecaj na izbor specijalizacije, a samim time ograničenje djelatnosti na urbane sredine. Oni uključuju financije, mogućnost organizacije radnog i privatnog vremena, mogućnost profesionalnog usavršavanja.

Abstract (english)

Health workers are defined as all workers who are engaged in actions with primary intent of enhancing health. In ever-present era of technological development and prolongation of expected life, there is an increased demand for health workers. With an increased need there is also presence of uneven distribution of health workers between rural (in which resides nearly half of world’s population) and urban areas. As a result of uneven distribution and ever-increasing demand for health workers in rural areas this problem is becoming a serious task for many of world’s governments. In order to resolve this problem many health policy makers have implemented certain means such as ensuring living accommodation, transportation, additional education or additional points when applying for a specialty. Furthermore several universities have implemented courses whose primary focus is increase of knowledge and experience regarding rural work. Moreover, it has been found that lack of professional support, technology, skills, knowledge and confidence may be one of the reasons for which students decide not to pursuit rural careers. On the other had there are certain factors which significantly influence future career choice and therefore limit young physicians work in urban areas. Some of them include financial stability, better work hours, sufficient leisure time, professional and personal development.
