The report from the Felicity (Saadet) Party that "they will understand when the last physician leaves, that the buildings cannot treat patients"...
While referring to the statements made by President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan regarding healthcare workers in the report titled “They Will Understand When the Last Physician Leaves, The Buildings Cannot Treat Patients” by the Saadet Party Health and Food Policy Board, it is stated that although there are city hospitals opened all over Turkey, there are many problems regarding education.
“AKSARAY UNIVERSITY STUDENTS EDUCATE IN KONYA”
In the report, while the problems experienced in health faculties were discussed, it was pointed out that some universities did not provide full training.
"As a result of the fact that the education and training activities of Aksaray University Faculty of Medicine are carried out in Konya Necmettin Erbakan University without going too far, and there are not neither physicians nor assistants in different clinics in many medical faculties, What kind of an education policy explains how the students who graduate from these faculties have no patients graduate without experiencing any treatment method?” the report said.
"THEY MAKE CHARACTER ASSASSINATION BY SHOWING THE DOOR”
Reminding the statements of President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan about doctors, the reasons for the actions of doctors to seek rights were pointed out.
"They want to leave because physicians are not paid low but because they do not get what they deserve, because every day news about violence in health comes from all over Turkey and it is stated that regulations will be made on this issue, because no step is taken, because they have long working hours and days-long shifts, because they can't get their personal rights and maybe because they are publicly targeted by the most authoritative person in the country. While it is necessary to create policies by thinking about how we can solve all these problems, how to stop these departures, what we can do, a character assassination is being made by showing the door,” the report added.
“IT IS IRRATIONAL TO BELIEVE THAT PROBLEMS WILL BE SOLVED WITH NEW GRADUATES”
In the report, which draws attention to the fact that the assassination of character carried out with discourses against healthcare professionals is not acceptable, it is stated that a period of at least 10 years and a serious resource will be needed to fill the place of every physician who quits working, “Experienced specialist doctors resign, go privately or abroad. It is irrational to think that the problem will be solved by replacing them with new graduates or assistants,” it was stated.
“HEALTH WORKERS CONTINUE TO FIGHT”
In the report, which draws attention to the work carried out by healthcare professionals during the pandemic period, "As no expected improvement has been made and our health manpower has decreased, physicians are forced to shorten the examination period in order to see more patients. In fact, the improvement that physicians expect in these matters, ensuring the continuity of the system, that the entire public is not examined in 5 minutes, that they do not wait in line for an appointment months later, in short, it is their struggle to provide better service,” it was added.
