Başlık: 2024 KPSS puanıyla yetişmiş sağlık insan gücü hazır beklerken, sahada artan hasta yükü ve yeni açılan sağlık tesislerinin ihtiyaçları görmezden gelinemez. Sağlık hizmetinin niteliği, doğru zamanda yapılan planlı istihdamla güçlenir; belirsizlik ise hem çalışanı hem sistemi yıpratır.

Başlık: 13 Şubat 2026’da Sağlık Bakanlığı önünde, atama bekleyen sağlık profesyonelleri için yüzlerce kişiyle meydandaydık. Bu sadece bir açıklama değil, bir irade beyanıdır.
