...Journal of Management and Marketing Research Hospital management reform: a step to healthcare reform R. Peter Heine Stetson University E. Nick Maddox Stetson University Abstract Recent intensive dialogue and debate regarding healthcare reform has led provider administrators to renew their search for “best practices” around the country. Many organizations, particularly hospitals, because of their complexity, are seeking new paradigms that will improve their efficiency and effectiveness regardless of the outcome of the current reform debate. This paper suggest that implementing an organizational change model, specifically, socio-technical systems design, can lead to more teamwork, communications and improved patient service delivery in all areas of hospital operations. Within the STS frame, staff records detailed steps or unit operations in their patient care processes, and then engage physicians in determining what could go wrong in each of these unit operations. Finally, changing what happens or improving the way these steps happen can become a team effort involving both social (people) and technical solutions. The authors acknowledge the extreme difficulty of changing the dominant physicianfocused culture which would be the result of such a successful OD intervention.

...INTRODUCTION 1. Background When the word Hospital comes on our mind, the first thing we think about the queue that we have to pass away to get admitted on that hospital. Where every second means life of a person, waiting there for hours gives always a ridiculous feeling. Standing on that point, understanding the importance of time, we are planning to develop software for hospital management. Most of these facilities are today’s need of time. In this project an analysis has been made on the existing Hospital Management System. It is tried that the entire Hospital could be managed by within the system and users feel easy and comfortable to use the system. The system keeps a record of the patient, doctor and other staffs of the hospital management. The software also enables to update, delete the record and also provides the search facility. The system keeps information related to the persons who are willing to donate blood during emergency. 2. Objectives of Hospital Management System Main target is to provide reliable and efficient service to the members/nonmembers of the hospital who visited the hospital in search of it. 1. Patient registration. 2. Emergency Service. 3. Records Information about Hospital. 4. Blood Bank Maintenance. 5. Blood and Organ Donor Maintenance. 6. Doctor Consult. 7. Consultancy Record. 8.

... title: Designing a database structure system for management hospital information. Field of research: Information system; database structure; hospital information Section B: Aims This project is going to indicate a new database structure model used to manage information in hospital management with respect to utilizing information and communication technology. It will enhance hospital to retrieve, process and achieve all the information in specific health facilities in a security domain. In fact, the database structure is not really considered as an important aspect in patient informational management in hospital. From the synthesis of the results of current hospital, the management of information within the hospital will include: management of patient information, medical information, laboratory data, diagnostic results, treatments, financial, pharmaceutical, medical equipment and general operations of the hospital. There are numbers of documentation in the database, the problem is illustrated that a hospital database management does not have the same synchronization in all fields. Consequently, it is quite difficult for any information activity in the process. To help resolve this situation, our project will develop a new database structure model that can fit most of the hospitals at all levels and to manage large bodies of information (Malatesh Havanagi, 2012)...

According to Margaret McClure, a professor at New York University and president of American Nurses Association, Magnet Credential program has developed as a result of a collection of nursing leaders discussing nursing shortages, thirty years ago in the 1980’s.

ANCC’s credentialing acknowledges and endorses specialized nursing certification in the individual nurse while promoting a safe and positive working hospital culture, (Summers, S. & Summers, H.J., 2015).

...a specialist for the ailment a patient came in for. Many times, except in absolute emergencies, the patient’s pain will be treated and they will be referred to a specialist’s office and directed to make an appointment for follow up care. Many issues play into the reduction of specialists available in the emergency room and range from the need to pay specialists for their time on call to many specialists choosing to be exclusively office-based and not participating in emergency room call at all. Differences in Organizations In a situation such as specialist shortages, for-profit and not-for-profit organizations in the general hospital setting do not have many differences. A large scale not-for-profit healthcare system may have the funds to pay stipends to specialists to take call at their facilities. A small stand-alone for-profit hospital may not have the funds to pay such stipends. “…study cites financial and legal disincentives that might make specialists reluctant to stay on-call. These include lack of payment due to the high number of uninsured patients using emergency departments and legal liabilities that lead to high insurance premiums for specialists,” (Robert Wood Johnson Foundation, 2011). The study above proves that the issues relating to the shortages are not a for-profit or not-for-profit issue but physician specific issues. How an organization chooses to deal with this physician issue is ultimately based on their financial picture and if they...
