| Description: | The most recent manpower survey of psychology posts
(Breaden & Woods, 2010) indicated that there were 647.34
Whole Time Equivalents (WTEs) working in the Irish health
services in 2008. However, psychology managers and many
other stakeholders recognise that this level of staffing is
insufficient. The purpose of this paper is to examine the two
not totally dissimilar population- and needs-based methods of
estimating workforce requirements and to outline which might
be the best method to calculate how many psychologists are
needed in Ireland. |
