Abstract

Health care services is defined as all activities that are done by health personnels for the protection and improvement of people’s health. Medical care is only a part of health care service, nonetheless it has occupied no little importance and cost. We can expect the scale of medical care to be increased. This article investigates which directions that we should make the plans for the medical facilities and manpower’s supply. We will search the current situations of medical facilities and manpower under the health care and medical treatment laws. In particular, we will deal with the gigantism of medical facilities and the imbalance of the nurses and the residents between supply and demand. Medical facilities have became larger and the number of the long-term hospitals are increasing, consequentially now we have the excess sickbed. The number of medical students need to balance between demand and supply according to the medical facilities. We expect that the licensed nurses would solve the problems of the manpower imbalance somewhat, but the scope of the licensed nurse’s work needs to be taken concrete. The intervention of medical facilities and manpower should be conducted in terms of the long-term and rational healthcare policy. We can supplement the rapid change of health care environment by offering the autonomy of the various field.
