No ! Guadeloupe does not wish to welcome doctors who are primarily fond of idleness! The archipelago needs qualified, committed professionals willing to expand the healthcare offering locally. Job offers seen on the Internet praising the tropical sun, the exotic aspect of the territory and the local possibilities for relaxation are considered counterproductive by the Guadeloupe hospital federation.
Between the salary offered, the all-expenses paid reception conditions and the promise of taking it easy”in the tropics“, a doctor could easily be tempted by one of the recruitment offers that we found on the Internet, aimed at professionals in France!
Adecco Médical, which has 95 agencies “in France and Overseas” (“in France, including overseas” would have been a more appropriate formulation) offers, in fact, a job as a specialist in child psychiatry in Basse-Terre. The terms used, such as “exotic opportunity” challenge. Judge instead:
This way of recruiting in a hospital environment greatly displeases those involved in the Guadeloupe Hospital Federation (FHG). Its president, Doctor André Atallah, issued a press release to denounce it; a document titled “unsuitable formulas to attract doctors“.
In a context of serious tension in medical demographics in Guadeloupe, the contribution of employment and recruitment agencies is important (…). However, under no circumstances may it be associated with the idea of “lazing around” in a job offer. The FHG strongly denounces the useless, inappropriate and counterproductive nature of this argument.

The Federation wants, for Guadeloupe, that the professionals who are involved locally are above all eager to actively serve specific objectives: the continuous improvement of the territory's hospital structures, the increase in the offer and the quality of care.
