We sometimes forget, but the health sector is not only composed of doctors, pharmacists, engineers, etc.. It is an environment that also needs administrative staff, for example… but also management staff! Yes, the structures and personnel of health services are not managed alone, far from it. So, if you want to work in health without going for a PhD, it is possible.
