On September 16, Minister of Health Dao Hong Lan shared with the press about Resolution 72 of the Politburo that was just issued, which includes policies related to special preferential policies for medical staff.

According to Ms. Lan, these are outstanding policies for medical staff directly working in medical facilities, especially at commune-level health stations and preventive medical facilities...

Focus on training, increase income

The Ministry of Health's leaders said that the ministry currently has specific solutions to attract, retain and promote the capacity of medical staff in the coming period.

Accordingly, in the coming time, the Ministry of Health will focus on three major groups of solutions.

Firstly, regarding human resource training and development, we will focus on investing in developing a number of high-quality health training facilities that are on par with the region, while expanding policies to support tuition fees and scholarships for medical students, especially those who are committed to serving at the grassroots level, in difficult areas, on borders, and on islands.

The viewpoint is to develop medical human resources to ensure uniformity in quantity, quality, and structure, especially human resources serving primary health care, preventive medicine, remote, isolated, disadvantaged, border, and island areas.

Second, regarding the remuneration policy, to have the above human resources, creating an attractive policy so that medical staff can feel secure in their long-term commitment and dedication to their work is extremely important. Therefore, it is necessary to have a strong and practical remuneration and support policy for the team doing preventive work and grassroots health care.

Therefore, the Resolution has identified preferential policies commensurate with the view that medicine is a special profession that must be trained, employed and treated specially.

Doctors, preventive medicine doctors, pharmacists are ranked from level 2 of the recruited professional title. Implement special and outstanding preferential policies for medical staff directly working in the field at commune health stations and preventive medicine facilities.

In particular, the preferential occupational allowance will be increased to a minimum of 70% for people who regularly and directly work as medical professionals at commune-level health stations and preventive health facilities; 100% for people who regularly and directly work as medical professionals at commune-level health stations and preventive health facilities in ethnic minority and mountainous areas, areas with difficult socio-economic conditions, etc.

"This is really a boost, creating motivation for frontline medical staff," Ms. Lan emphasized.

The Ministry of Health will closely coordinate with ministries and branches to institutionalize these solutions for early implementation. Outstanding preferential policies in training and use will also help to attract and improve the quality of medical human resources at the grassroots level, creating conditions for medical staff to feel secure in their work and serve the people.

Improve working environment, communication skills

Regarding the practice environment and medical ethics, Ms. Lan emphasized the need to continue reviewing and perfecting regulations on professional ethics standards for medical staff; innovating and enhancing medical ethics education and legal knowledge in training in the health sector; regularly fostering and improving awareness of self-study, training, cultivating medical ethics, codes of conduct, communication skills, and patient counseling.

Improve the working environment, ensure safety, reduce pressure on medical staff; innovate the way of managing the provision of medical services according to output quality, meeting the satisfaction of both patients and medical staff.

Propaganda, launch a widespread emulation movement, build, commend, reward and replicate advanced models of medical ethics; enhance the sense of responsibility and labor discipline, resolutely rectify and overcome negative manifestations at medical facilities, strictly and promptly handle acts of abuse against medical staff.

"We will continue to coordinate with the authorities to prevent medical violence. From there, we will build a safe and humane working environment where medical staff are protected and respected. This is not only a spiritual encouragement, but also contributes to spreading trust in doctors in society," Ms. Lan shared.
