A robust sustainable health system is needed to ensure that the best quality health care services are delivered to the patients and therefore health systems must be sustained by a motivated and trained health workforce. In fact, as the complexity of health care services grows, services become increasingly dependent on the competencies of more than one profession, requiring multi-professional teams of health-care providers .
A Health Workforce can be defined as the health care professionals (including dentists, doctors, nurses, nutritionists, pharmacists, psychologists, etc) and all people who assist with the functioning of health systems (administrative assistants, hospital managers, ambulance drivers, etc).
