摘要

目标：专门的精神医疗服务是高度劳动密集型的，而 COVID-19 的流行加剧了劳动力的短缺。我们从卫生政策的角度探讨了澳大利亚精神卫生保健劳动力供应方面的信息。我们的目的是促进讨论、进一步研究和制定干预措施：心理保健劳动力市场有许多特点，容易造成短缺和其他扭曲现象。这些特点包括：医疗保健工作属于劳动密集型工作；培训时间长；薪酬等传统政策杠杆只能发挥部分作用；以及在留住和招聘心理健康护士和精神科医生方面的其他挑战，尤其是在公共心理健康服务中。需要进一步开展研究，以制定和评估有效的干预措施。

Australian specialised mental healthcare labour shortages: Potential interventions for consideration and further research.

Objective: Specialised mental healthcare delivery is highly labour intensive, and the COVID-19 pandemic has exacerbated workforce shortfalls. We explore the information on the mental healthcare labour supply in Australia from a health policy viewpoint. Our purpose is to stimulate discussion, further research and development of interventions.

Conclusions: The mental healthcare labour market has a number of features that make it prone to shortages and other distortions. These include: the labour-intensive nature of healthcare work;, long-training periods; that traditional policy levers like pay are only partially effective; as well as other challenges in retaining and recruiting mental health nurses and psychiatrists, especially in public mental health services. Further research is needed to develop and evaluate effective interventions.
