More than 60 percent of health care providers who are citizens of, and were trained in developing countries are today working in developed countries, said Health Minister, Dr Leslie Ramsammy, on Friday.He has accused some developed countries of engaging in scavenging activities that prevent countries like Guyana from making use of their investment geared at boosting the human resources in the local health sector.According to the Minister, without the appropriate human resources, the provision of good health care in any country cannot be attained.Dr Ramsammy was at the time addressing the gathering at the Pan American Health Organisation (PAHO) Biennial Programme consultation, at the Grand Coastal Inn on Friday.He underscored the fact that while there is need to train more health workers globally, emphasis must be given to developing some kind of provisions whereby there is greater equity in the use of persons trained locally.“It is unfair that in North America and Europe there are more than 25 health care workers per a 10,NFL Jerseys Cheap,000 population. In Africa it is less than two workers per 10,000 and in Guyana it is four per 10,000 which can be generalised in the Caribbean.”The problem, according to the Minister, lies in the fact that even though Guyana has for the past two years been spending almost US$10 per capita and was training more than four health workers per a one thousand population, the country has not been able to utilise the persons trained.But according to the Minster,Cheap MLB Jerseys China, “This is not a unique Guyana thing. This is a developing country reality. We needed them but as we trained them they were serving people that were better off than we are.”And the situation exists despite the fact that the government over the last five years has upped its rate of training to a level which according to Minister Ramsammy has left several of Guyana’s neighbours envious.He asserted that,Cheap NFL Jerseys Store, today,China NFL Jerseys, Guyana has been able to train more health care workers than at any other time in its history. “But as we train some are leaving.”And this development, the Minister said, represents an inequitable situation. He resisted suggestions from some parts of the globe that developing countries are not investing enough. Additionally, he noted that developed countries are always warning developing countries to protect their investment, an act that he said is near impossible as the playing field is not fair.“We invest as much as we can afford. But the scavenging activities of developed countries prevent us from making use of our investment. Doubling my nurses’ salaries will not prevent them from taking up green cards for themselves and family members in the United States or taking up a US$50,000 per year contract.”But according to the Minister, “the time has come for us to recognise the inequity in terms of human resources. I believe that whilst we have talked about human resource in health, whilst the text book and training programmes have emphasised these imperatives, we have not given the appropriate priority to the issue of human resources.”Dr Ramsammy said that one of the indispensible priorities in terms of achieving good health is the human resource priority,holesale NFL Jerseys, adding his belief that such discussions should be placed at the top of the agenda of all national regional and global initiatives.He added that in spite of what, a number of consultants say, countries like Guyana are doing an enormous amount of work in building its human resources.“Maybe we do not have all of the financial resources to do everything we need but I dare any one to point out to us what is it we don’t recognise we need to do. We know what we need to do; we don’t need consultants to tell us what to do.”Too much of the global resources dedicated to the development of human resources are going towards consultancy that repeat the same recommendations,Cheap Nike NFL Jerseys, he added.He noted that the resources are not being put into implementing the recommendations that are repeatedly made.He emphasised the importance to recognise why countries are failing to implement these recommendations. He speculated that countries are failing not only because they are lacking in financial resources but because they have failed to develop guidelines and agreements that govern the movement of health care workers.“It is not merely that the world is not training enough health care providers, which is a fact, but there is an inequity in how we use those we have trained.”And in order to arrest this problem, Dr Ramsammy is optimistic that through the PAHO Biennial Programme consultations better regional and global initiatives can be developed to deal with the inequity of human resources.
