Healthcare IT News: Workforce

A productive workforce is essential for strengthening the healthcare system as it helps in detecting and preventing healthcare emergencies, promoting the health, and well-being of the population. The workforce in healthcare includes all healthcare professionals and support staff who deliver or assist in providing healthcare services. These include doctors, nurses, hospital managers, ambulance drivers, other non-medical staff, etc. For the smooth functioning of workforce solutions, there must be the availability of three essential services- human resources, physical capital, and consumables. Therefore, all healthcare organizations should focus on strengthening these services for dealing with their healthcare issues, which is only possible through a proper workforce development process.
