Thirty-one (21.8%) respondents did not have such goals to improve themselves as health professionals, 86.6% (n = 123) respondents felt it was important to develop one’s professional health career, 77.5% (n = 129) respondents had taken steps to develop their career to a certain level, and 76.1% (n = 108) out of 142 respondents agreed that KATH had supported them in their career development. Conclusion: Developing one’s health career is a way to improve and increase on previous knowledge gained through practice or formal education. A well-structured career pathway will help health workers to be more receptive to new and improved ways of patient care and management.
