The Provincial Public Health Office Dr. Club Opposes Transfer of Personnel from 5 Departments: Affecting Patient Care and Calling for Guidelines Revision

The Provincial Public Health Office Dr. Club opposes the transfer of personnel from 5 departments of the Ministry of Public Health to the local area, including the Public Health Office, Public Health Office, Center Hospital, General Hospital, Community Hospital, and asks the Committee to revise the guidelines or interpret them clearly. The reason is that it is not the primary department according to the conditions of decentralization. If transfers are made, there will be a problem of insufficient personnel in the secondary and tertiary hospital service system. Affecting patient care

On Oct. 31, Dr. Chatuchai Maneerat, Provincial Public Health Doctor (Dr. Provincial Public Health Doctor), Chiang Mai, as president of the Provincial Public Health Doctors Club Mentioning the case of the sub-committee managing the mission of transferring public health to local administrative organizations. There was a resolution that personnel from 5 agencies, namely Provincial Public Health Office (Public Health Office), District Public Health Office (Public Health Office), Regional Hospital, General Hospital, and Community Hospital, could be transferred to the local area, according to a meeting of the Doctors’ Club. Provincial Public Health Agreed that there should not be a transfer of personnel from the 5 agencies to the Provincial Administrative Organization and will issue a statement opposing the matter. The Provincial Public Health Doctors Club has a standpoint supporting the transfer of the mission of providing primary care services. That is in accordance with the Decentralization Plan for Local Administrative Organizations (No. 2) 2008, which specifies the process for transferring the missions of health centers and Subdistrict Health Promotion Hospitals that are primary departments to local administrative organizations. It aims to result in the people receiving thorough and quality services.

“But the transfer of the past mission It was found that public health personnel working in 5 departments had reported their intention to transfer along with the transfer of personnel from health centers and sub-district hospitals, without having yet determined the scope. or a clear method for transferring personnel in this group Which, in addition to not being in line with the intent of the decentralization plan, also affects the administration of local agencies. and taking care of the people,” said Dr. Chatuchai.

Dr. Chatuchai said: The transfer of personnel working in 5 agencies has caused the administrative agencies, namely the Provincial Public Health Office and the Provincial Public Health Office, to lack personnel with experience in policy analysis for implementation. Including controlling and supervising the operations of local service units in accordance with important policies. As for service units, from community hospitals and up It will further aggravate the problem of personnel shortages in providing services. As a result, outpatients who come for treatment and follow-up appointments must wait longer and become more crowded, while inpatients will lack experienced and skilled personnel to take care of them, such as seriously ill patients in the ICU, patients undergoing surgery. Have to wait longer in line for surgery Due to the lack of surgical assistant nurses, etc. Therefore, I would like to propose that the Committee on Decentralization to Local Administrative Organizations (OCC) review the guidelines or interpretation of the transfer of personnel working in the 5 aforementioned agencies. By considering the principles and reasons of the law. and most importantly, prevent any impact on the people receiving services in Secondary and tertiary hospitals
