Abstract:
Objective To describe the status quo of talents team for basic public health service (BPHS) projects in China.
Methods Using stratified cluster sampling, we collected the data on personnel allocation in 736 primary medical institutions of 32 provincial regions in China from January to March 2017. Then, the number, structure and turnover of personnel were analyzed by community health service centers (CHCs) and township health centers (THCs).
Results The proportion of full-time public health workers in CHCs was significantly higher than that in THCS (29.91% vs. 18.86%, P < 0.05). The ratio of public health practitioners (assistants) was 12.51% and 11.03% among the full-time public health worker in CHCs and THSs, respectively. The average numbers of yearly turnover of doctors were 1.02 and 0.72 for each of the CHCs and THCs, with a significant difference (P < 0.05).
Conclusion The talents team for basic public health service projects is generally in a better condition in community health service centers than that in township health centers in China. The education background and professional title structure are good but the personnel allocation is insufficient and the turnover is in a large number for the grass-roots institutions for basic public health services.
