Health Care Workforce

The health care workforce includes all the professionals who provide medical and health-related services, such as doctors, nurses, pharmacists, technicians, and support staff. They work in hospitals, clinics, and community settings to diagnose, treat, and promote health. A strong, well-trained workforce is essential for accessible and quality health care. Challenges like shortages, uneven distribution, and evolving medical needs require ongoing planning and training to ensure people receive timely, effective care. Ultimately, the health care workforce is vital for maintaining public health and improving patient outcomes.
