Abstract

Background: With the signing of the Bologna Convention by the Republic of Serbia, higher schools were reformed into higher vocational schools for a period of three years. The paper analyzes the education programs of professional healthcare workers and their importance for the business of modern healthcare institutions.

Method: A survey was conducted that included the gender, age, and educational structure of the respondents, the number of children and household members they live with, the length of service and the type of employment relationship of the respondents, and the attitudes and opinions of health workers.

Results: The results of a survey conducted among students of specialized studies at the High School of Professional Studies in Belgrade are shown in tables. The importance of higher education for healthcare workers for the successful operation of healthcare institutions was confirmed.

Discussion: The authors dealt with this problem in the course of their work as professors, and their observations, which they presented at expert meetings, were cited in the literature.

Conclusion: Based on the results of the work, the conclusions were reached that knowledge from the management of the work organization helps in acquiring managerial positions in the institution and that the acquired skills and abilities encourage the staff in carrying out the social mission. Health workers have shown that they want to improve their profession and support changes and additions to the school's program contents in accordance with the progress of medicine.
