The reform of the personnel system, which is an inevitable requirement of medical and health organizations seeking survival and development, needs to be carried forward promptly. The paper makes an analysis of the steps taken by Nanjing City to reform the health personnel system in recent years and summarizes the experience obtained. The steps include: setting up the Health Talents Center, adopting the system of personnel agency and leaving the way out unimpeded; adopting strict standards for the introduction of talents and bringing into play the benefit of the best allocation of human resources; and getting rid of the practice wherein cadres, once promoted, are never degraded. The experience includes: liberating the mind, changing concepts and forming a sound environment for reform; making joint efforts and forming a cohesive force so as to provide reliable organizational guarantee for reform; proceeding in an orderly way and step by step so as to ensure the healthy development of reform; and making constant explorations and improvements so as to give impetus to the constant deepening of reform.
