农村贫困地区2002年至2006年县级卫生机构人员流动状况调查

Objective To probe into the HR development of healthcare professionals in poor rural areas. Methods 51 county-level healthcare institutions from 13 counties in six provinces were sampled to study the turnover from 2002 to 2006. Results The number of healthcare professionals per 1 000 population in the poor counties investigated was in average lower than that of counties in the same province; the inflow of personnel was higher than that of outflow. Of the inflow, 43. 50％ were fresh university graduates, and 40. 58％ were transferred from other organizations, 95.83％ have degrees of technical secondary schools and above, and 87. 17％ were healthcare professionals. 70. 44％ of the outflow were retirees, and 22. 33％ were transferred outside; 28. 00％ have only senior high school degrees or below, 69. 74％ were healthcare professionals. Conclusions The quality of healthcare personnel has been improved to some extent; but the risk of brain drain remains a challenge. An appropriate mechanism of personnel turnover should be built, and graduates from medical schools should be directed to reinforce healthcare teams in poor areas.
