1                Laws and acts



The most important law which includes all of the Finnish people is the constitution law. The constitution law determines things like people’s equality, personal rights, free moving, privacy, freedom to speech and right’s to social healthcare. The constitution law creates the basics of all laws (Finlex.2016a).

The law of social healthcare act is also very important. It’s specify and determine more clearly regulations in social healtcare than constitution law. The meaning of the law is improving and keep the well-being and social security. Take care that everyone has equal social and other well-being services. It helps collaboration between local town and other operative. (Finlex.2016b).

Other important law is the healthcare act. This is necessary law to Finland which is still welfare society. It keeps and improves people’s health, well-being, work and functional ability and social security. It also narrows health differences between peoples. Accomplish basic healthcare services. (Finlex.2016c).

Primary Health Care Act’s determines what local town has to provide to the people. Social and welfare ministration decides the main principles and Regional State Administrative Agencies watches that towns will obey these acts. (Finlex.2016d).

Act on the Status and Rights of Patients determines that all people have right to get good healthcare. The patient has self-determination rights about the treatment. In minor case it has to prove that you are aware enough to determine yourself. In severe cases it has to give treatment but not if it against at own will. This law it’s for the people’s security. (Finlex.2016e).


2                The social welfare and health care reform



The social welfare and health care reform main purpose is to make health care system more effective. Now days health care costs are too expensive for the country. In the future there will be three stages: Country, province and towns. The reform is meant to start at 1.1.2019. However, this reform is effective its meant to help people to get treatment and improve equality between people. (Sote ja maakunta uudistus).

In the future, you can choose where you want to be treated. You can choose between public, private or third sector health system. The special treatment is concentrated in big University hospitals and your nearest health center might be cancelled. The payment in public health treatment will rise. (Yle).

The digitalization is one main thing in reform. When every health care professional will use the same system, the ICT is easier to everyone. You can use the Kanta.fi to watch your own information and every health care professional is able also to watch things what is necessary to treatment. (Kanta.2016)


3                Siun-Sote




The main purpose in Siun-Sote program is to unite all social and health service and central hospital services in 14 different towns in North-Karelia and one town Heinävesi in South-Savo. This reform is meant to make health care system more effective and improve patients safety and service. (Siun-Sote.2016a).

Equitable access to health care services is tough thing because the area of the North-Karelia is wide. There is electronic services available witch purpose is make it easier to get help if you can’t go to health center. Example the old person can use tablet computer which have camera connection and call to the nurse or doctor and get service at the distance. Also there is a lot of health information available to you. The system and service will develop all the time. (Siun-Sote2016b).

Siun-Sote is meant to start early 2017. Like every reform this is big thing to everyone. The staff and patients have had chance to affect to process. It’s important to listen the those you will actually do the work and who get the treatment. (PKSSK.2015).

My personal opinion is that this is reform is great thing but there is lot of questions marks. Elderly are the biggest user of health services so is the new model simply enough to the elderly which have used to different kind of health care system. If our country can’t get rid of this financial crisis is the reform effective enough? What will happen in future there aren’t answer but together we will rise again.
