Syria has achieved significant reductions in mortality and morbidity rates in past decades through increases in income and improvements in education, as well as through expansion of health services and public health programmes. The public system is provided and managed by the Ministry of Health (MoH), which is the lead national organization for preventative and curative services. Problems exist with human resources, such as mal-distribution, low salaries and allowances, no process for the selection of staff which matches the needs of a particular position, a performance appraisal system not designed to improve performance and low use of cooperative and supportive styles of management.
