Abstract

Health human resource planning (HHRP) is concerned with having the right people with the right skills in the right place at the right time to provide the right services to the right people. It therefore involves careful analysis of both the needs for health-care services and the approaches to be used to meet these needs. The emphasis of much HHRP policy to date has been on the effects of demographic change _ the effect of an aging population on total health-care needs and the effect of an aging workforce on total service provision (Denton, Gafni, & Spencer, 1993,1994,1995).
