Workforce and Training
The World Health Organization defines a health worker as a person “engaged in actions whose primary intent is to enhance health.” Health workers in most countries consist of two main groups: the health care providers, such as physicians, nurses, pharmacists, public health specialists, and affiliated professions; and health system workers such as regulators, planners, and managers who are not involved in the direct delivery of care but rather ensure that health systems function appropriately.
