According to the public relations report of the University Alumni Office, in the second meeting of the scientific committee of the professional commitment seminar, which was held on Saturday, October 15, 2022, with the presence of members of this committee and in the Alumni Office, Dr. Seyed Mansour Getmiri, head of the University Alumni Office emphasized that the health profession has an all-round impact on the lives of those working in this profession.

He said: The issue of professional commitment is related to duties of the members of the health sector, including doctors, nurses, etc., as well as the duties of upstream and supporting organizations. This profession affects and influences the life of its employees in an all-round way. This all-encompassing influence frequently places members of the profession in a position to prioritize the interests of patients over their own. On the other hand, society has a special social position for the members of this profession. Since the health profession deals with people's lives and their health, society has given this profession a special place.

He added: This respectable position has been considered for this profession to compensate for the hardships caused by working in this profession. Therefore, despite the fact that to a large extent this profession does not fit with the material rewards intended for it, but throughout history in different societies, these hardships have been somehow compensated. Those who enter this profession prefer the interests of their contacts to their personal interests, and in front of the society, they have a respectable role for this profession, and the upper and guiding social systems must play a special role in relation to the members and individuals of this profession, so that it is possible To provide a competent and high quality service to the audience.

Dr. Getmiri continued: If we focus on the characteristics of the members of the profession and expect them to endure all the crises and pressures caused by this profession as a saint, it will lead to exhaustion and fatigue of the professionals, and the role of professionalism in relation to the guiding systems and If the support systems, including insurance, the Ministry of Health and the medical system organization, become weak, the perspective of professional commitment will be limited and we will face many shortcomings.

He said: special attention should be paid to the professionalism and commitment of the supporting organizations so that the profession is not exposed to harm through the monitoring of the profession by the supporting organizations.

Dr. Getmiri added in another part of his speech that the other point is that instead of supporting organizations in the implementation of the role they should play in front of this profession and its employees and having a supporting role, for example, in tariffs, it acts in such a way that the hardships of this the profession should be compensated, taxes, incentives and support policies should be discounted, but unfortunately, we see that this role has been reversed in recent years, and these laws are even more stringently applied to commercial professions, or the tariffs are very inappropriate compared to the real and international tariffs, or In taxes, instead of applying incentive and discount policies, the opposite is done. Unfortunately, we faced challenges in this profession, and for this reason, during the last five years, we tried to convey some truths to the upstream systems through this seminar.

Dr. Seyed Mansour Getmiri, head of the university's alumni office, while presenting a report from the last meeting, said: "The issue of professional commitment is related to the role and duties of members of the health sector, including doctors, nurses, etc., as well as the duties of upstream and supporting organizations." . This profession enters the life of its employees in an all-round way and affects it. This all-encompassing influence frequently places members of the profession in a position to prioritize the interests of patients over their own. On the other hand, society has a special social position for the members of this profession. Since the health profession deals with people's lives and their health, society has given this profession a special place.
