Abstract:
Objective To understand the current status of human resources of parasitic disease control and prevention orga-nizations in Henan Province,so as to provide the reference for promoting the integrative ability of the prevention and control of parasitic diseases in Henan Province.Methods The questionnaires were designed and the method of census was adopted.The information,such as the amounts,majors,education background,technical titles,working years,and turnover in each parasit-ic disease control and prevention organization was collected by the centers for disease control and prevention(CDCs)at all lev-els.The data were descriptively analyzed.Results Totally 179 CDCs were investigated,in which only 19.0%(34/179)had the independent parasitic diseases control institution(department).There were only 258 full-time staffs working on parasitic disease control and prevention in the whole province,in which only 61.9%(159/258)were health professionals.Those with junior col-lege degree or below in the health professionals accounted for 60.3%(96/159).Most of them(42.1%)had over 20 years of expe-rience,but 57.9%(92/159)of their technical post titles were at primary level or below.
