[Progress in the development of healthcare human resources in Peru and their importance in the quality of care].

Healthcare Human Resources (HHR) are key for the success of any health system; its development and performance are fundamental to ensure quality care. Despite this reality, HHR are often absent from health reform processes. In Peru, in the last 30 years, there have been several reforms that have included, to a greater or lesser extent, improvements in HHR policies aimed at providing a better quality of care to the population. This article seeks to make a brief analysis of the advances in the field of management and development of human resources in the healthcare sector in recent years, highlighting their importance in the quality of care. Through considerable effort, we would achieve competent, equitably-distributed HHR committed to delivering quality care to all individuals.
