Expansão dos cursos de Graduação em Enfermagem e mercado de trabalho: reproduzindo desigualdades?

This study aimed to analyze the relationship between the increase in the number of degree courses in nursing and the nursing job market. It is a descriptive exploratory study with a quantitative approach, which used data on Undergraduate Nursing courses, supply of nurses, connection with health facilities, and formal jobs in nursing in the state of Minas Gerais. The evolution of Undergraduate Nursing courses reveals a supply and demand decline in recent years. Such context is determined by the nurses labor market being influenced by the contradiction of a professional quantitative surplus, particularly in the states less developed areas, as opposed to a low percentage of nurses to care for the populations health. These characteristics of the nursing labor market reproduce inequalities furthermore aspects such as the regulation of nursing education and the creation of new jobs need to be discussed further.El objeto del presente estudio fue analizar la relacion entre la expansion de los cursos de grado y el mercado laboral de los enfermeros. Estudio exploratorio descriptivo con enfoque cualitativo cuya fuente de informacion fueron datos sobre los cursos de grado en enfermeria, cantidad de enfermeros, vinculos en establecimientos de salud y puestos de trabajo formales de enfermeros del Estado de Minas Gerais. La evolucion de los cursos indica disminucion de oferta y demanda en los ultimos anos, contexto determinado por el mercado laboral del enfermero, infuenciado por la contradiccion entre el numero excedente de profesionales, especialmente en las regiones menos desarrolladas del Estado, y su baja proporcion para atender a la poblacion Se percibe que estos aspectos reproducen desigualdades y que debe debatirse mas tanto la regulacion de la formacion del curso como la creacion de nuevos puestos de trabajo.This study aimed to analyze the relationship between the increase in the number of degree courses in nursing and the nursing job market.

Impacto do Programa Mais Médicos na redução da escassez de médicos em Atenção Primária à Saúde

The Mais Medicos (More Doctors) Program (PMM) was put in place in Brazil aiming to reduce inequalities in access to Primary Healthcare. Based on diverse evidence that pointed to a scenario of profound shortage of doctors in the country, one of its central thrusts was emergency provision of these professionals in vulnerable areas, referred to as the Mais Medicos para o Brasil (More Doctors for Brazil) Project. The article analyses the impact of the PMM in reducing shortage of physicians in Brazilian municipalities. To do this, it uses the Primary Healthcare Physicians Shortage Index, which identifies and measures the shortage in the periods of March 2003 and September 2015, before and after implementation of the program. The results show that there was a substantial increase in the supply of physicians in primary healthcare in the period, which helped reduce the number of municipalities with shortage from 1,200 to 777. This impact also helped reduce inequalities between municipalities, but the inequities in distribution persisted. It was also found that there was a reduction in the regular supply of doctors made by municipalities, suggesting that these were being simply substituted by the supply coming from the program. Thus, an overall situation of insecurity in care persists, reflecting the dependence of municipalities on the physician supply from the federal government.The Mais Médicos (More Doctors) Program (PMM) was put in place in Brazil aiming to reduce inequalities in access to Primary Healthcare.
