Medical Subject Headings (MeSH): Occupational Groups

There are many different occupational groups in healthcare, each with their own unique roles and responsibilities. Some of the major occupational groups in healthcare include:

Physicians: These include doctors of all specialties, such as family medicine, pediatrics, surgery, and neurology, who diagnose and treat illnesses and injuries.

Nurses: These include registered nurses (RNs), licensed practical nurses (LPNs), and nurse practitioners (NPs) who provide direct patient care and work closely with physicians.

Therapists: These include occupational therapists, physical therapists, and speech therapists who help patients recover from injuries or illnesses and regain their ability to perform daily activities.

Technologists and Technicians: These include radiologic technologists, respiratory therapists, and laboratory technicians who perform diagnostic tests and procedures, as well as support the work of physicians and nurses.

Health Administrators: These include managers, administrators, and executives who oversee the operations of healthcare facilities and organizations.

Other Allied Health Professionals: These include paramedics, EMTs, dietitians, social workers, and many other professions that provide a wide range of healthcare services to patients.

Each occupational group in healthcare plays a vital role in the delivery of healthcare services, and they often work closely together as a team to ensure that patients receive the best possible care. They all have different levels of education, certifications and licenses, and have diverse roles in healthcare.

It’s important to note that this list is not exhaustive and there are many more occupational groups that exist within the healthcare system. Healthcare is a vast field and it’s constantly evolving with new technologies, procedures and specialties, therefore new occupational groups are emerging all the time.
