The Role of Doctors, Nurses, and Healthcare Workers in Strengthening Public Health

Abstract

Patients are diagnosed and treated by various health workers they meet in the health system. In their eyes, it is hard to differentiate nurses, laboratory technicians, and others from the practitioner doctor as they are not sure who is the practitioner. This is an obvious fact and it is good in a humanitarian point of view as patients think that all work hard to heal them. The problem is twofold: being unnoticed even how hard they work. As diagnostic and treatment processes are not carried out in the presence of the patient in this period, the sacrifice of nurses, laboratory and radiology technicians, many health officials, and non-health staff is really difficult and relentless but unseen if the system is still crude (Kuhlmann et al., 2021). Public health workers improve the quality of life of the individual through organized measures and efforts of society and protect the health of the society as a whole. Statistically, one doctor working in public health services which are of critical importance on days of crisis would save the lives of 1000 individuals in a community with population of 100,000 – all the 100,000 in the World; this is being unnoticed.
