Access to Health Services Expanded, Health Workers' Competence Must Also Be Improved
Published
The Minister of Health emphasised that expanding public access to health services must go hand in hand with improving the competence of health workers. This message was delivered as part of the government's efforts to improve health services in Indonesia.
Therefore, breakthroughs are needed to expand the availability of health workers. The health workers required are those who have competence, namely the abilities, knowledge, and skills that match the needs of public services.
In other words, the number of health workers alone is not enough. The quality and capabilities of health workers also need to be considered so that the services provided to the public are appropriate and suited to their needs.
This statement shows that expanding access and improving the competence of health workers are two closely related matters. However, the source of this news has not explained in detail the programmes or concrete steps that will be carried out to achieve these goals.
