The medical institutions of Chisinau municipality need over 130 specialists. They have only 84% of the necessary number of doctors and 60% –70% of nurses, depending on the kind of medical assistance - primary or hospital one, Health Division head Mihai Moldovanu said in a news conference, quoted by IPN.
“The medical institutions need 30 family doctors and about 100 medical specialists. Anyone who will come to the Health Division will be hired. The situation is serious. The Family Doctors Center of Buiucani district alone needs 13 family doctors. One doctor there works for one salary and a half,” said Mihai Moldovanu.
He underlined that the specialists avoid the medical institutions owing to the low salaries. But it is up to the Government to decide a pay rise.
