Tiraspol, January 16. /Novosti Pridnestrovya/. Medical workers` low salaries remain one of the main problems of the Pridnestrovian healthcare, the Head of the Government said on the air of the First Pridnestrovian TV channel.
“Doctors and paramedical staff show patriotism and love for their work. They do their job. But it is not possible to talk about the industry development in the medium or in the long term without substantial motivation,” Alexander Martynov stated.
The Prime Minister said that measures would be taken to change that situation in the near future. They plan to encourage health workers through a salary increase and an affordable housing program.
