"Leprosy remains a deep-rooted human rights issue," says Alice Cruz, the UN Special Rapporteur on the elimination of discrimination against persons affected by leprosy, a role she's held since November 2017. There are more than a hundred laws that discriminate against people with leprosy worldwide, creating a strong stigma that can act as a barrier for getting treatment, she says. In some countries, leprosy is grounds for divorce. In India, this was the case until laws were amended in 2019. Many people affected by the disease still struggle to get jobs, and the disease can hinder their access to healthcare and education. "Countries should do everything in their power to have discriminatory laws abolished and to put in place policy that can guarantee economic and social rights to people affected by leprosy," says Cruz. "Going forward, we should ask ourselves the question: are our healthcare systems working to afford full accessibility to persons affected by leprosy? This is because leprosy is much more than a disease, it became a label that dehumanises people who are affected by it."

Strengthening Healthcare Systems through Recruiting International Talent!
Exploring the hidden gems in the healthcare system - a crucial link between human resources for health and tangible health outcomes. The latest findings from the WHO dataset will restructure the way we feel the emergence of healthcare staffing.
This is not just a demystifying fact of vital connection and paving the way for a healthier future. World healthcare providers and advanced patient care through data-driven insights make a real difference in healthcare for all.
In the complex and dynamic landscape of healthcare, the challenge of addressing skill health professional shortages remains a persistent issue. International recruitment agencies came into force with a deeper strategy to coordinate with challenges by boosting healthcare systems with a diverse pool of talent. 
EuroNoxx Medical Group stands at the forefront of this initiative, actively recruiting skilled locum doctors, dentists, nurses, and allied health professionals from abroad to work in the NHS and private hospitals. 
This article delves into the benefits of international recruitment, illustrating how it not only mitigates staffing shortages but also enhances the quality of care provided to patients.
Delving deep into the data to uncover key insights that matter!
Our recent analysis sheds light on vital healthcare trends, exploring the intricate link between human resources for health and critical mortality rates.
From maternal to infant and under-five mortality rates, each data point tells a powerful story. And we're here to decode it all. Sharing our thoughts as we solve the importance of our findings. Let's transform numbers into actions that make a difference!
A...Addressing Critical Staff Shortages!
The demand for healthcare services continues to rise, driven by an ageing population, advances in medical treatment, and higher patient expectations. 
This increased demand places significant pressure on the existing healthcare workforce, leading to critical staff shortages in various specialities and regions. International recruitment offers a practical solution to this issue, enabling healthcare systems to fill vacancies with highly qualified professionals from around the globe. 
By doing so, EuroNoxx Medical Group plays a crucial role in ensuring that healthcare providers can continue to offer essential services without compromise.
B..Enriching the Workforce with Diversity!
One of the most significant advantages of international recruitment is the diversity it brings to the healthcare workforce. Healthcare professionals from different cultural and clinical backgrounds contribute varied perspectives, skills, and approaches to patient care. 
This diversity promotes a more inclusive atmosphere, improves communication with patients from diverse backgrounds, and enhances the overall quality of care. 
Moreover, the exchange of knowledge and best practices among internationally recruited staff and their UK counterparts leads to continual learning and improvement in clinical practices.
C..Meeting the Demand for Specialised Skills!
Certain areas of healthcare are in alarming need of professionals with specialised skills. Which can be challenging to source domestically. 
International locum staff recruitment agency allows healthcare institutions to access a global talent pool of healthcare specialists by measuring their expertise to address specific healthcare challenges. 
As the UK's best international locum staff recruitment company, we bridge this essential pool of healthcare talents by providing an advanced medical learning and training ecosystem.
Supporting Sustainable Workforce Development
While international recruitment addresses immediate staffing needs, it also supports the long-term development of the healthcare workforce. By incorporating international professionals into the UK healthcare system, EuroNoxx Medical Group contributes to a more robust and resilient workforce capable of meeting future healthcare demands.
Furthermore, for an international staff recruitment culture of mentorship and professional development, please visit our career page and fill out the form to get the next generation of UK healthcare and medical workforce.
Conclusion
International recruitment is more than just a strategy to fill staffing gaps; it is a means of enriching the UK healthcare system with global talent and expertise. 
The efforts of EuroNoxx Medical Group in recruiting healthcare professionals from abroad are pivotal in enhancing the diversity, quality, and sustainability of healthcare services. By accommodating international locum talent on a permanent and temporary basis, our contribution remains a priority in the global as well as UK healthcare sectors to address critical staff shortages and foster an environment of Medical Equipment and healthcare supplies as well for supper speciality patient care. 
As we move forward, the continued integration of international professionals will remain key to the strength and resilience of healthcare systems.

This is maybe the funniest (worst) radfem post I've come across in a while. It was a comment about cis women getting hysterectomies.
Do y'all know how many feminists have been fighting to be allowed to get hysterectomies without a) birthing (often multiple) children or b) a husband's permission? Including many people who have extremely painful and/or dangerous uterus-related conditions, like PCOS or menorrhagia? So many doctors HATE giving hysterectomies specifically because "you really should have kids first".
Also, cis men don't need to "remove their ballsack" to avoid having kids. They get vasectomies. An incredibly simple, routine procedure.
People who are getting hysterectomies are often doing so for reasons not solely related to pregnancy - if it were just about fertility, getting your tubes tied would suffice if you were averse to other forms of birth control. My mum did that after my sister was born, and then went back in for a hysterectomy a few years later because her periods were agonising. My aunty also had a hysto several years back, because not only were her periods agonising, but they would cause flare ups in some of her other conditions.
I just... how are you calling yourself a feminist while advocating for LESS bodily autonomy for women? How can you act like women are being stupid or reckless in their choice to get a hysto and not see the indescribable misogyny you're utilising?
"It's never [cis] men who remove an organ just because they don't want it" yeah, I wonder if that's because they don't have an organ that causes agonising blood loss on a monthly basis? Like... nobody's out here getting kidneys removed for fun. It's a very specific organ only being removed for very specific, personal reasons.
It's my body, not yours. Hands the fuck off.
*This post is authored by a trans person. If you're agreeing with me about this topic while being against trans healthcare, consider that your whole ideology is built in opposition to bodily autonomy for people outside your ideals of gender. Sit with that information.*

Many doctors are reintroducing the old practice of visiting patients at home. With house calls, older adults are spared the worry and difficulties of traveling to the doctor’s office. Another advantage is that these doctors typically spend more time with their patients. You will not be required to squeeze your inquiries into a 15-minute session. Keep in mind that house calls or home visits are not for emergencies. They are similar to typical office visits.

reblog if you think these are all valid reasons for a student or an employee to take a day off from their school or their job without their grades or paycheck being affected in any way:
- period cramps
- exhaustion, be it mental or physical

It is disheartening to read that health systems require financial incentives to do what is right
It is disheartening to read that health systems require financial incentives to do what is right
Integrity is doing the right thing always. It is disheartening to read that health systems require financial incentives to do what is right, in this case, to reduce racial and ethnic inequities in care.

"Seminario cited the recent report, “Employer-Reported Workplace Injuries and Illnesses,” that shows that the number of respiratory illnesses in the private health care and social assistance sector increased from 145,300 in 2021 to 199,700 cases in 2022, an increase of 37.5 percent.
...
As an industrial hygienist, Seminario was extremely critical that there were no experts in respiratory protection on the committee nor did it include engineers who developed ventilation guidelines. She believes that the HICPAC committee members are likely so opposed to respirators “because once you are into recommending respiratory protection, with that comes a full respiratory protection program from OSHA,” with penalties for violations.
An epidemiologist and consultant, Michael Olesen, echoed this, believing the changes reflect “pressure to remove liability from hospitals.” He added, “I take a very clear position that we should be having respiratory protection mandates in all healthcare settings right now.”
...
Many patients who spoke at the HICPAC meetings said they had gotten Covid-19 when they went to the hospital and that the new policies were keeping them from getting care.
Given that, Dr. Art Caplan, professor of medical ethics at New York University’s Grossman School of Medicine, previously told me that dropping masking requirements in hospitals is “utterly, completely, irresponsible.” Similarly, staff refusing to mask, even when a patient requests it, is a moral failure. “The first principle is, you must do what is in the best interest of your patient,” he said.
...
Several people were asked why they believe HICPAC is determined to water down protections. Consistently, respondents say, “to reduce liability.” Earlier in the pandemic, hospitals regularly tested patients and staff for Covid-19, and you could often tell where and how you became infected. Since staff are no longer masking and continue working when ill, and patients are not being tested on admission, you can no longer prove who infected you. Hospitals are the only ones who win in this scenario, absolving themselves of responsibility and liability."
