Great Risk for Education Cost: Brain Drain (Resident Physicians Case)

Arka Plan: Beyin göçü sağlık sistemlerini oldukça olumsuz etkilemektedir. Asistan hekimlerin eğitim ve çalışma koşullarındaki güçlükler bu göçe neden olabilmektedir. Amaç: Bu araştırmanın amacı asistan hekimlerde beyin göçü ve nedenlerini araştırmak, iş doyumu ile olası ilişkisini incelemektir. Çalışma Türü: Kesitsel araştırma Yöntem: Araştırmaya Ankara il merkezinde bulunan üniversite ve devlet hastanelerinde görevli 161 asistan hekim dâhil edildi. Araştırma verileri Asistan Hekimlerin Beyin Göçüne Dair Görüşlerine İlişkin Anket Formu ve Minnesota İş Doyum Ölçeği ile toplandı. Bulgular: Araştırmaya katılan asistan hekimlerin yarısından fazlası yurtdışında uzmanlık eğitimi (%51.6, 83/161) almayı ve yurtdışında çalışmayı (%55.3, 89/161) istemektedir. Eğitim ve çalışmak için en fazla gidilmek istenen ülkeler Almanya, ABD, İngiltere ve Kanada olarak sıralanmaktadır. Yurtdışında çalışma isteği kadın, genç, çocuk sahibi ve sosyoekonomik seviyesi daha düşük olan asistan hekimlerde daha yüksektir. Yurtdışında uzmanlık eğitimi için en temel nedenlerin başında yurtdışında eğitim koşullarının daha iyi olduğu düşüncesi gelirken, yurtdışında çalışmak isteğinde ise çalışma ve yaşam koşullarının daha iyi olması gelmektedir. Sonuç: Türkiye’de asistan hekimlerin yarısından fazlası daha iyi eğitim, çalışma ve yaşam koşulları nedeni ile yurtdışında uzmanlık eğitimi almak ve yurtdışında çalışmak istiyor.

Great Risk for Education Cost: Brain Drain (Resident Physicians Case)

Background: Brain drain affects health systems rather negatively. Difficulties in the education and working conditions of resident physicians may lead to brain drain. Aim: The aim of the present study was to investigate the brain drain and its causes in resident physicians and to examine its likely relationship with job satisfaction. Study Design: Cross-sectional study. Method: A total of 161 resident physicians working in university and state hospitals in Ankara city center were included in the study. The research data were collected using the questionnaire about the views of resident physicians' on brain drain and the Minnesota Job Satisfaction Scale. Results: More than half of the resident physicians participating in the study desired to attend to medical specialty programs abroad (83/161, 51.6%) and to work abroad (89/161, 55.3%). Germany, United States of America, England and Canada were the countries that the participants desired to visit for education and employment opportunities the most. The desire to work abroad was higher in residents, who are female, young, have children and have a lower socioeconomic level. While one of the main reasons for attending a medical specialty program abroad is the thought that the education conditions abroad are better, the main reason for the desire to work abroad is the better working and living conditions. Conclusion: More than half of resident physicians in Turkey, want to attend a medical specialty program abroad and work abroad for better education, employment, and living conditions.
