No full textIn the attempt to provide a global vision about the hospitals challenges, the present book analyzes their external and internal sources, represented by the dense network of rules and expectations coming from institutions, patients, professionals in which hospitals are embedded.
The numerous changes occurred within the large part of healthcare systems during the last 20 years, have determined important consequences to which hospital managers have necessarily answered. Uncertainty, rules, innovations are just some of the main ingredients of the challenges. Mimicry, legitimacy, managerial fashions diffusion instead represents some of the core strategies to face them. Hospitals survival depends on their ability to intercept on time and to promptly accomplish to the external expectations; manager’s role is to create a workplace in which changes are possible. Individual and organizational work value congruence can facilitate it by improving the quality of the communications, the degree of trust in the hospitals mission, the physicians’ and nurses’ knowledge about processes and relationship. But hospitals challenges reach up to the single physician, asking him to play new and often conflicting roles. The “new” physician needs to balance his time, to accomplish ambiguous expectations, to fulfill heterogeneous tasks, to compete for scarce resources in order to embrace the changes. In this vein physicians’ negotiating style and ability assumes a strategic role
Competenze attori e ruoli per la sanità del futuro
No full textQuesto numero speciale è dedicato alle competenze, agli attori e ai ruoli necessari per il futuro della sanità, con l’intento di stimolare una riflessione multiprospettica
e multidisciplinare su un tema cruciale per la gestione del sistema sanitario. La pandemia da COVID-19 ha mostrato chiaramente quanto sia
fondamentale avere un sistema sanitario robusto, ben organizzato logisticamente e strutturalmente, ma soprattutto attento alle persone che vi lavorano. I
diversi contributi riguardano i diversi aspetti del cambiamento, organizzativo, di processo e di ruolo, analizzando come l’incertezza e le nuove
responsabilità abbiano contribuito a trasformare il sistema sanitario. I contributi si concentrano sulle esperienze dei professionisti durante la pandemia,
sull’importanza delle relazioni professionali e dei network per facilitare i cambiamenti organizzativi, e sul ruolo delle competenze professionali.
Particolare attenzione è data alle competenze manageriali e alla formazione, strumenti essenziali per il futuro della sanità, e sull’importanza di nuove
figure professionali, come l’infermiere di famiglia, per potenziare l'assistenza territoriale
