When in Belarus celebrate the day of a health worker. Day of workers in the pharmaceutical and microbiological industry in Belarus. How many medical workers in Belarus receive

The doctor is a responsible, risky and unpredictable profession, vital and indispensable for any society. Probably, therefore, even on their professional holiday, doctors can not afford a full day off.

In Russia, traditionally, Medic Day is celebrated on the third Sunday of June: in 2018, the holiday falls on June 17.

The day of the medical worker was first established in the Soviet Union according to the Decree of the Presidium of the Supreme Council "On holidays and memorable days." In the future, the idea was picked up all over the world, and now doctors are honored in dozens of CIS countries, Europe, Africa and America.

Other dates in honor of doctors

By the way, Medic Day is not the only holiday of medical workers. So, in some countries, May 12 is International Nursing Day. The date of the celebration was not chosen by chance: on May 12, 1820, Florence Nightingel, one of the founders of the Sisters of Mercy movement, was born. But the nurse has no day off.

However, the servants of Aesculapius (the ancient Roman god of healing), regardless of gender, have more than enough reasons for the holiday: the Day of the surgeon, paramedic, resuscitator, therapist and dozens of other professional holidays are celebrated in Russia annually and on a large scale.

What is the Hippocratic Oath

Everyone who has at least a distant idea of \u200b\u200bphysicians and medicine has heard of the Hippocratic oath, but few people, except doctors, know its meaning. In fact, the Hippocratic oath is a kind of "code of honor" for physicians, which contains the moral and ethical standards of behavior of a medical worker.

The original text says:

"I will not give anyone the lethal remedy I am asking for and show the way for such a plan ... No matter what I see or hear during treatment, I will keep silent about this as a secret. I will spend my life and my art pure and immaculate "

The medical profession is changing rapidly, and the oath of Hippocrates has also changed. Modern physicians pronounce legally approved versions of the "Hippocratic oath", and in some countries the version of Hippocrates is not used at all for historical reasons. Nevertheless, the Hippocratic oath remains interesting for historians and many medical specialists who appreciate the ancient history of healing.

Why do doctors have white coats

Everyone who has ever visited a hospital wondered: why do doctors have white coats? The reason for this is justified as banal. The uniform of the physician appeared in the XIX, and in those days, doctors wore ordinary aprons and gloves.

Once an English doctor, Joseph Lister, noticed that blood and dirt were clearly visible on a white apron, and suggested that all doctors wear only white bathrobes for hygiene and sanitation purposes. The idea took root, and later on the skill of the physician was judged by how much he dirty his robe during the operation.

The medical profession is one of the oldest in the world, and now it is in demand almost everywhere. Each of us at least once in a life turned to a doctor for help and treatment. Indeed, even at the very beginning of a person’s life - at the birth of a baby - doctors are directly involved. AND modern healthcare and the efforts of doctors are aimed not only at treating diseases and maintaining human health, but also at its development.

This professional celebration is usually celebrated at state level. Medical workers are congratulated not only by the direct management, but also by the Minister of Health. The most prominent and active hospital staff are assigned honorary titles. Prizes are awarded for professionalism, a long term of work, and the publication of works on medicine.

How many people will celebrate Medical Worker's Day in Belarus

According to the National Statistical Agency, the number of practicing doctors in our country is more than 43 per 10 thousand of the population, and the average medical staff is 132, 4 per 10 thousand, respectively. Traditionally, Minsk is best equipped with doctors - there are more than 58 specialists per 10 thousand people.

More recently, in the medical industry, there was an acute issue with personnel - there were not enough specialized specialists, especially in the periphery. But in recent years, due to an increase in recruitment to medical schools and the distribution of young specialists, the problem of staff shortages was mainly solved. And in some specialties that are in demand in the commercial sector, there has even been an overabundance of specialists. According to the Minister of Health of Belarus Valery Malashko, this year

However, many medical specialties the competition remains one of the highest in the country.

How many medical workers in Belarus receive

Average wage of doctors in April approached $ 500, but on average for healthcare this figure still does not look so impressive - about $ 350, which does not prevent medicine from remaining the highest paid industry out of all state employees in the country.

However, Minsk doctors feel much more prosperous than their colleagues from the province - since 2012, the Minsk City Council of Deputies annually allocates funds for additional payments to the salaries of medical workers. In 2017, more than 11 million rubles were planned to implement this measure.

As the Day of the Medical Worker is celebrated in Belarus

Traditionally, the day of the medical worker is celebrated in Belarus on the third Sunday of June. In 2017 - June 18. The Belarusian doctors inherited this date from the USSR, where it was introduced back in 1981. It has been preserved in many CIS countries - along with Belarusian doctors, Medical Workers Day will be celebrated on June 18 in Russia, Ukraine, Armenia and Moldova.

Since this is a day off, most health workers celebrate their professional holiday not at the post, but in the family circle. The only exceptions are medical hospitals and ambulance services, for which work is organized around the clock.

However, regardless of where the doctors celebrate their professional holiday, their phones will be torn all day from the calls of grateful patients.

How to congratulate a health worker

There are no universal recipes. Some give traditional flowers-sweets-alcohol, others show imagination and prefer presents with humor. These days the price includes figurines-cartoons for doctors, funny souvenirs with a comic oath of Hippocrates or a set of scalpels that mimic the tools of medieval Aesculapius. In a word, finding a gift for the day of a health worker is not difficult.

However, when preparing a gift for your beloved doctor, it is important not to lose sight of a very important aspect: in Belarus, there are legislative restrictions on the receipt of gifts by healthcare workers - the cost of a presentation should not exceed five times the base amount. Otherwise, your gift may be regarded as a bribe.

But this is not a reason to be upset. Show your imagination, come up with an unusual move, compose verses for your favorite doctor, contact your colleagues - they probably have a photo where your favorite doctor is captured at work - prepare a wall newspaper for him with humorous verses and photo collages.

Such a gift will definitely be remembered much brighter than the traditional and faceless set of flowers, sweets, alcohol. In the end, if you don’t know what to give, just call and say appreciative and sincere words. Indeed, for any person it is important to know that what he does is necessary for people. And medical workers deserve it like no other.
