  • Health Manpower development in Bayelsa State, Nigeria.
    Risk management and healthcare policy, 2012
    Co-Authors: Kalada G Mcfubara, Elizabeth R Edoni, Rose E Ezonbodor-akwagbe
    Abstract:

    BACKGROUND Health Manpower is one of the critical factors in the development of a region. This is because Health is an index of development. Bayelsa State has a low level of Health Manpower. Thus, in this study, we sought to identify factors necessary for effective development of Health Manpower. METHODS Three methods were used to gather information, ie, face-to-face interviews, postal surveys, and documentary analysis. Critical incidents were identified, and content and thematic analyses were conducted. RESULTS There is no full complement of a primary Health care workforce in any of the Health centers in the state. The three Health Manpower training institutions have the limitations of inadequate Health care educators and other Manpower training facilities, including lack of a teaching hospital. CONCLUSION Accreditation of Health Manpower training institutions is a major factor for effective development of Health Manpower. Public officers can contribute to the accreditation process by subsuming their personal interest into the state's common interest. Bayelsa is a fast-growing state and needs a critical mass of Health care personnel. To develop this workforce requires a conscious effort rich in common interests in the deployment of resources.

  • The Impact of EEG Technology on Health Manpower
    American Journal of Electroneurodiagnostic Technology, 1996
    Co-Authors: Roberto E. Torres, Irene H. Butter
    Abstract:

    ABSTRACT.The aim of this paper is to illuminate the process by which new technology in the field of electroencephalography has modified Health Manpower requirements. Specifically, the paper explores 1) the nature and the sequential phases of the process by which technological change creates shifts in the quantity and quality of Health Manpower employed, and 2) the resulting impacts on Health Manpower training institutions. A case study research design was developed by applying a process model, conceptualized for this study, which identifies, describes, and analyzes the key technological and Manpower changes involved in the historic evolution of EEG technology, using qualitative data from sources in the literature. This study suggests that, as a result of technological change, labor intensiveness has increased over time due to higher levels of expertise requirements and specialization. Labor intensiveness increases are reflected by the larger number of occupations involved in EEG testing, higher investment...

  • Oral Health Manpower projection methods and their implications for developing countries: the case of Zimbabwe.
    Bulletin of the World Health Organization, 1991
    Co-Authors: A. A. Khan, W. D. Sithole
    Abstract:

    Manpower projections for oral Health are generally held to be more accurate than those for other Health sectors since the diseases involved and their treatment times can be predicted more precisely. Nevertheless most oral Health Manpower projections are either overestimates or are not in line with the resources of individual countries, especially in developing countries. Zimbabwe was taken as the study case, and oral Health Manpower projections were made using two of the most commonly employed methods and one new approach. The projections obtained using the three methods were all different, and even the lowest projection is beyond the resources of the country. It is recommended that in making oral Health Manpower projections, the facilities available to accommodate these personnel should also be taken into account.
