This study aims to investigate and analyze the staffing within public healthcare institutions in District W, identifying issues and limitations in the number and structure of healthcare personnel that constrain the development of the healthcare sector. The objective is to provide a theoretical basis for strengthening the construction of the primary healthcare workforce in District W. Through literature review, questionnaire surveys, and interviews, the study statistically analyzed the quantity and structure of the healthcare workforce within public healthcare institutions in District W. It also investigated multiple dimensions such as job satisfaction, promotion opportunities, performance evaluation systems, and training needs of healthcare professionals. Among the 286 healthcare professionals within public healthcare institutions in the district, only 2.45% hold a postgraduate degree. Approximately half of the personnel are aged between 46-55 years, with those holding senior professional titles predominantly within this age group. Personnel with less than 10 years of service are all at the junior professional level, while those with intermediate and lower professional titles are mainly aged between 36-55, comprising 68.89% of the total. The questionnaire results indicate that about half of the staff within public healthcare institutions in District W are dissatisfied with the current salary system, promotion and evaluation system, and performance appraisal system. Public healthcare institutions in District W face issues such as imbalanced educational and age structures among personnel, dissatisfaction with the current salary, promotion, and performance evaluation systems, and inadequate training effectiveness. Strengthening the construction of the primary healthcare workforce in District W is an urgent necessity.
