Abstract

Health interventions cannot be carried out without health workers. Personal health interventions involving patient contacts require the services of doctors, nurses or other types of health care providers, while the preservation and promotion of health require such additional health workers as public health specialists, health educationalists and media experts. The health system also needs the services of many other categories, including planners, health economists and accountants
