A working group will propose changes in their training and work<\/em><\/p>\n

At this stage, the duration of the training of nurses and midwives will not be reduced, an idea against which all interested professional organisations have expressed their opposition. The reason is that the line ministers did not support the proposal for 3+2 years of undergraduate training of nurses.<\/p>\n

This became clear from the words of the President of the Association of Medical Universities in Bulgaria, Prof. Dobromir Dimitrov, Rector of the Medical University of Pleven, during a meeting he organised on the problems of health care professionals.<\/p>\n

Prof. Dimitrov proposed to work towards updating the Unified State Requirements and updating the curricula of the health care specialties. In addition, Prof. Dobromir Dimitrov stressed that not enough is being done to introduce high technologies in the training of health professionals, as is the case for doctors - there is no training through virtual and augmented reality, as well as sufficient simulation training before entering clinical practice.<\/p>\n

There are two major groups of problems related to health care professionals in Bulgaria. The first unites the problems in their training and the second - the problems related to their detention in Bulgaria. The participants in the meeting united around this conclusion.<\/p>\n

It was attended by representatives of all interested professional organizations: The Bulgarian Association of Health Care Professionals (BAHCP), the Bulgarian Association of Assistant Pharmacists (BAPF), the Bulgarian Union of Medical Assistants and Paramedics (BSLAF). On the part of the medical universities, members of the management and faculties of public health participated in the meeting, as well as members of the academic staff of the departments that train students in the field of health care, the Medical University of Pleven informed.<\/p>\n

The participants decided to set up a working group within one month, including representatives from each of the professional organisations present, as well as from the Bulgarian Medical Association, one representative from each specialty in the field of health care of higher education institutions, as well as from university and municipal hospitals as employers. Within two months, the working group will make proposals to the line ministries for changes in terms of both university training of health professionals and employers in the healthcare system.<\/p>\n

At the meeting, it was also decided to develop a unified strategy for the development of the Health Care strand and, in terms of communication, to join efforts in a nationwide information campaign that would increase the interest of young people in the professions of health care professionals.<\/p>\n

Respect on the part of society and colleagues, opportunities for professional and academic growth, defining a clear program for forming a starting salary and gradually increasing wages, maintaining a high quality of education, unifying the criteria for admission of students in the specialties of the Health Care Department in the higher education institutions that offer them. These are the key factors for the satisfaction of health care professionals, summarized during the meeting the Chairwoman of BAPZG Milka Vasileva.<\/p>\n

The Chairwoman of BAPF, Lilyana Petrova, presented several problems related to the motivation and realization of the assistant pharmacists in Bulgaria, as well as the need for synchronization of the Bulgarian legislation with the European practices and international standards.<\/p>\n

Alexander Alexandrov, Chairman of the Bulgarian Medical Association, presented the opportunities offered by the profession of medical assistant. These medical professionals diagnose, treat common diseases and can prescribe medications. It was recalled that even now a large part of the emergency workers are medical assistants and paramedics. According to BSLAF, with the more active integration of medical assistants in the healthcare system, many of the problems with the personnel crisis in outpatient care can be solved in the short term within a few years. In this regard, attention was drawn to the urgent need to increase the number of students in this specialty, especially in Northern Bulgaria. The representatives of BSLAF suggested that the profession of medical assistant should also be protected.<\/p>\n
