Abstract: (1460 Views)
Introduction: The Villagers and Nomads' Family Physician Program in Khuzestan Province was implemented to provide primary medical and health services to the rural and nomadic populations, aiming to improve their quality of life by focusing on disease prevention and management.
Methods: In this study, questionnaires were used to collect data to determine the challenges of implementing the family physician plan from the perspectives of plan monitors and participating physicians, focusing on nine areas. Questionnaires were sent to all 235 members of the health team, and plan monitors in Khuzestan Province, and 177 members completed the survey. The findings of this quantitative study were analyzed using descriptive statistics, chi-squared tests, and Mann-Whitney tests at a significance level of 0.05.
Results: The results indicated that physicians' low job attractiveness, with an average score of 7.43, impairs their persistence, which is identified as the most important challenge.
Conclusion: Considering the difficulty of the job and the adequacy of facilities and amenities, attention should be paid to the motivational and financial needs of health team members when setting executive guidelines.
