摘 要:A 3-tier system of health manpower is being planned in Ghana in conformity with the primary health care strategy of that country. Front-line health workers who already exist in the communities will work in populations of 200 people or more. They will be responsible for primary preventive and promotive procedures and simple first level curative measures. Training and supervision of these front-line health workers will be done by conventional health workers. Emphasis is being put on these types of health workers because of the health problems encountered and unwillingness of highly trained health personnel to work in rural areas where they are most needed.
