The study was conducted with 02 objectives to describe and analyze some factors affecting the attraction and retention of doctors working at Tien Giang Central General Hospital. The research design is cross-sectional, combining literature review and qualitative methods. It was conducted from January to July 2019. Literature review was used to find out situation of health worker attraction and retention while qualitative research was implemented with health workers and managers to find influencing factors. Research results show that the hospital lacks doctors to serve the overloaded number of patients: the ratio of doctors/ beds is only 0.18 (194/1.100). For 03 years (from 2016 to 2018), the hospital recruited 46 doctors, compared with the staffing needs is 107 doctors, reaching 43% as planned. The number of doctors who quit their jobs in these 3 years was 21 people, of which 04 doctors quit their jobs due to family situations.

And Training

Computerized auditory training (CAT) is a convenient, low-cost approach to improving communication of individuals with hearing loss or other communicative disorders. A number of CAT programs are being marketed to patients and audiologists. The present literature review is an examination of evidence for the effectiveness of CAT in improving speech perception in adults with hearing impairments. Six current CAT programs, used in 9 published studies, were reviewed. In all 9 studies, some benefit of CAT for speech perception was demonstrated. Although these results are encouraging, the overall quality of available evidence remains low, and many programs currently on the market have not yet been evaluated. Thus, caution is needed when selecting CAT programs for specific patients. It is hoped that future researchers will (a) examine a greater number of CAT programs using more rigorous experimental designs, (b) determine which program features and training regimens are most effective, and (c) indicate which patients may benefit from CAT the most.
