Redistributing public hospital staff

The new Ministry of Public Health authorities are resuming work to introduce a system for government health workers at public hospitals to be paid hourly for work reported. The Ministry of Public Health has announced the start of a process of relocating staff depending on the needs and productivity of each public hospital. The Ministry of Public Health says that an audit is being carried out under doctors Ramon Alvarado and Felix Hernandez to establish staff, their work remit and their schedules. The relocations will be carried out gradually with the consensus of the medical and nursing associations.

Alvarado said: “We will establish whether there is a specialist in a hospital who can only work there for an hour, then he will be hired for that hour, or if in a hospital there are eight ob-gyn specialists on staff but the number of actual births is low, they will be relocated to other hospitals where there is high demand. He added that the government was seeking methods for decongesting the large hospitals.
