the context of: maintaining and enhancing the achieved level of the preparedness of the
workers in Health Care especially regarding the process of basic qualifying (pre-gradual) and
lifelong (post-gradual) learning. Human sources can be divided, according to the preparedness
of Health Care to existing threats, into independent groups with a different relation to the
security tasks including population protection and they belong to the following health care
sectors:
a) Workers at Health Care administration offices
b) Employees of the providers of health care services

d) Employees of the suppliers of health care needs
Each, this way defined group has its own internal organization of managing and
leading positions, guaranteeing the operation of a relevant health care entity both in standard
