It’s easy to attack, but medical staff now need to share

“Hopefully the society, community and people are very understanding and sharing so that the health sector can be stable again”, Prof. Dr. Nguyen Anh Tri expressed on the sidelines of the meeting on the morning of June 9 of the third session of the 15th National Assembly.

Mr. Tri said that facing many difficulties after straining to contribute in the fight against the COVID-19 epidemic, the health sector urgently needs encouragement and support in many aspects from the Government and people. The health sector is facing a “storm” after straining to contribute to the fight against COVID-19 come to an end.

This issue was mentioned by some delegates in previous discussions of the National Assembly, in which the outstanding shortage of equipment, medicine… which has existed for a long time and the crisis of confidence has just occurred. until a series of health workers were punished for their mistakes.

According to Prof. Dr. Nguyen Anh Tri, after the criticisms and measures to handle the right people and the right crimes, health officials need attention and encouragement in many aspects.

The Hanoi delegation expressed his opinion: “The government needs to step in early to encourage, guide, create conditions, and point out things for health sector managers to see the good things, the right things to do and to do right away, and the bad things, the wrong things. must be avoided immediately.

But, it is important that the people, society and community share their best with the health sector. It is very easy to attack, it sounds very happy, but health workers at this time need a lot of sharing to calm down, calm down, and feel safe when working. The number one benefit is for the patient. If health workers are still worried and hesitant, the biggest harm and impact will be on the patient.”

Prof. Dr. Nguyen Anh Tri pointed out that many health workers are afraid, unable to “dare to think and dare”. The reason is not from the fact that a series of managers, even at the ministerial level, have made mistakes that have been handled in recent times, but this problem has appeared for a long time. The bottom line lies in the shortcomings of the legal system.

Delegate Nguyen Anh Tri cited an example in many hospitals where there was a shortage of medical supplies, medicines and biological products because the management team hesitated in conducting procurement packages.

“If you look at the surface, people think that because many medical staff make mistakes, from the dean of the department to the director of the hospital, even at the ministerial level, it leads to fear of not daring to do it. But in reality the cause The root cause is that in our legal system there are still many gaps, many loopholes, many inadequacies, not keeping up to date with the situation. Prof. Dr. Nguyen Anh Tri analysis.

“Health workers are appointed to be managers, they are no less and not all of them are bad. But, for a long time, we have lacked a standard and adequate legal framework, which leads to them making mistakes, especially In the situation of fighting epidemics like fighting the enemy, saving diseases like fighting fires, the whole thing is very urgent.

There are people who are very good at appointing them, but the working process has holes, making their bad hearts and bad qualities rise up, doing wrong things. I make no excuses. Those people must be properly handled, but I hope, then the legal corridor must be very good, there should be no loopholes for health sector managers to fall into a bad situation to rise up.”

According to Prof. Dr. Nguyen Anh Tri, health workers are not necessarily afraid of being wrong, afraid of carrying a crime. The fear is actually waiting for the addition and update of the legal corridor to work with peace of mind. The Hanoi delegation said that this change needs a long process, but needs to be done as soon as possible step by step.

“In the immediate future, the Government and ministerial-level management agencies must quickly supplement, correct and adjust the issues that are based on Resolution 12 of the Standing Committee of the National Assembly and Resolution 43 of the National Assembly that have allowed to remove them. remove it immediately, in a timely manner, ensuring peace of mind for health sector managers to carry out their work, to have medicine and biological products for patients”Prof. Dr. Nguyen Anh Tri offered the solution.

“In the long term, we must review all existing legal systems and legal documents to promptly upgrade and supplement regulations so that medical managers can rest assured. A legal corridor. The official law makes those people free from greed, without opportunities for their own money, so that they know fear in the true sense of the word.
