Share of user-oriented full-time equivalents with health education in care services (per cent)

On March 17, 2025, the definition of 'patient- and user-oriented full-time equivalents' was changed for all periods (2015-2024) in the table, resulting in changes compared to previously published figures. The change means that 'user-oriented' man-years are now defined based on the employees' occupation, whereas they were previously defined based on their education. With the new definition, 90 percent of man-years in care services are defined as patient- and user-oriented, compared to 97 percent under the old definition. This change resultet inn lower figures for Share of man-years within user directed nursing and care services with health education.

The change means that 'user-oriented' man-years are now defined based on the employees' occupation, whereas they were previously defined based on their education. With the new definition, 90 percent of man-years in care services are defined as patient- and user-oriented, compared to 97 percent under the old definition. This change has resulted in lower figures for Man-years per user of nursing and care services.

Institutions - share of private beds (per cent)

Man-years in the health centre and school health services per 10 000 inhabitants 0-20 years (man-years)

There was a larger increase than normal in man-years between 2020 and 2021. This is due to several municipalities including temporary personnel involved in Covid-vaccination in the health center services and school health services (86.903). The personnel should have been included in Standard Industrial Classification number 86.904. This effects the comparison of figures from the two years on national level and for some municipalities, counties and KOSTRA-groups. Presumably, some man-year figures are still a little too high in 2022.
