Currently, the national project «Healthcare» is being actively implemented in the Russian Federation, the most important tasks of which are to increase the availability of medical care and the quality of medical services, the development of high-tech methods of diagnosis and treatment of diseases, strengthening the personnel reserve of the industry and achieving maximum staffing of medical organizations at various levels with doctors, secondary and junior medical personnel. As a basis for achieving these goals, of course, an increase in the level of motivation, satisfaction and psycho-emotional well-being of healthcare workers should be considered, which can contribute to the retention of existing and influx of young personnel, increase the level of staff working capacity, increase the quality of services provided and the availability of medical care. The peculiarities of the doctor’s work determine a consistently high level of work stress, which to a certain extent is determined by individual factors and personal characteristics of the specialist, as well as a number of organizational predictors. The degree of satisfaction of healthcare professionals with the workflow largely determines the quality and availability of medical care. This article presents data from domestic and foreign literary scientific sources that highlight the level of satisfaction of doctors with work and various factors associated with it, the impact of this indicator on the social and professional life of doctors, as well as possible measures to increase the satisfaction of specialists with their own work.
