Using the Map:

The workforce map data can be accessed either by clicking a country from the list to the left (on large screens) of the map, or by clicking a country on the map itself. This will open an ‘overlay’ for the selected country, displaying the workforce data details and statistics. Use the (X) button top-right, to close the overlay.

Those using a cursor/pointer device can ‘hover’ over any country on the map to reveal the Density of Physician Anaesthesia Providers (PAP) number.
