Human resources for health: a framework synthesis to put health workers at the centre of healthcare

202410 citationsOpen accessUniversity of Calabar

Abstract

Several frameworks exist providing different recurring thematic areas for addressing human resources for health issues in LMIC. Frameworks have predominantly functional or instrumental dimensions and much less consideration of the humanness of health workers. The paradigms used in policy making, development and funding may compromise the effectiveness of strategies to address human resources challenges in LMIC. We propose a comprehensive human resources for health framework to address these pitfalls.
