Mit den "Markentechnischen Instruktionen" soll Grundsatzliches zum Markenmanagement und zur Markenkommunikation vermittelt werden. Die "Markentechnische Praxis" zeigt im erfolgreichen Einzelfall Allgemeingultiges.

R1,040 Discovery Miles 10 400 Ships in 12 - 17 working days

Diagnosis Related Group (DRG) systems were introduced in Europe to increase the transparency of services provided by hospitals and to incentivise greater efficiency in the use of resources invested in acute hospitals. In many countries, these systems were also designed to contribute to improving - or at least protecting - the quality of care. After more than a decade of experience with using DRGs in Europe, this book considers whether the extensive use of DRGs has contributed towards achieving these objectives.

Written by authors with extensive experience of these systems, this book is a product of the EuroDRG project and constitutes an important resource for health policy-makers and researchers from Europe and beyond. The book is intended to contribute to the emergence of a 'common language' that will facilitate communication between researchers and policy-makers interested in improving the functioning and resourcing of the acute hospital sector. The book includes: A clearly structured introduction to the main 'building blocks' of DRG systems An overview of key issues related to DRGs including their impact on efficiency, quality, unintended effects and technological innovation in health care 12 country chapters - Austria, England, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Ireland, the Netherlands, Poland, Portugal, Spain and Sweden Clearly structured and detailed information about the most important DRG system characteristics in each of these countries Useful insights for countries and regions in Europe and beyond interested in introducing, extending and/ or optimising DRG systems within the hospital sector

Digital Disruption in Healthcare (Hardcover, 1st ed. 2022): Nilmini Wickramasinghe, Suresh Chalasani, Elliot Sloane Digital Disruption in Healthcare (Hardcover, 1st ed. 2022)
Nilmini Wickramasinghe, Suresh Chalasani, Elliot Sloane
R4,448 Discovery Miles 44 480 Ships in 10 - 15 working days

Digital disruption in healthcare is generating new technologies, applications, and large data sets, and these are all precipitating significant changes in healthcare processes. Emerging applications due to digital disruption and their impact on healthcare delivery and quality are becoming some of the key focus areas of research. However, to date, systematic, generalizable, full-scale evaluation of these new technologies/applications is lacking. Little is known about the net short- or long-term health and wellness impacts of digital technologies. Similarly, the care-delivery and management process changes caused by digital disruption are forcing healthcare organizations to react rather than plan for them in advance. Given these gaps, this book addresses the technology, applications, data, and process aspects of digital disruption in healthcare. This volume is a collection of key areas in health and wellness impacted by digital disruption. It highlights the benefits, barriers, facilitators, and transformative forces that are shaping healthcare digital disruption. Topics explored in the chapters include: Towards Network Medicine: Implementation of Panomics and Artificial Intelligence for Precision Medicine Telehealth Implementation: A Synopsis of Patients' Experience of Clinical Outcomes Realising the Healthcare Value Proposition of Better Access, Quality and Value of Care by Incorporating the Social Determinants of Health with Digital Health The Internet Hospital in the Time of COVID-19: An Example from China Given the diverse interest in healthcare delivery solutions today, the need is broad across academia and the healthcare industry for a comprehensive resource for teaching, practice, and research. Digital Disruption in Healthcare is a point-of-entry resource for transferring theory into practice for heads of IT departments in hospitals, consultants, and academia, as well as scholars and researchers. Both graduate and undergraduate students as well as certificate-seeking health informatics and public health students would benefit from this book. Furthermore, it is useful for healthcare stakeholders including healthcare professionals, clinicians, medical administrators, managers, consultants, policy-makers, and IT practitioners within the healthcare space.

Great Health Care is enlightening and entertaining. It's a must read for physicians, patients, health policymakers and administrators, and the interested public---anyone who wants to understand what great health care is, and how we might build it together. The authors share their stories and motivations and the methods they have used to transform care for their own patients within their own practices and health systems. They thoughtfully explore how we got into this mess, how we can get out of it, and the barriers to making it happen. "It is not only the impact of chronic diseases on our health and economy that draws us to this subject. It is the intriguing and rewarding potential for improving the status quo through redesigning how chronic disease care is provided and paid for." (Timothy Harrington, MD) "You can't do things differently until you see things differently." (Eric Newman, MD) "We start people on the road to recovery, but the 12 weeks of cardiac rehabilitation is just the warm-up period. The really important part is what happens afterward." (Richard Lueker, MD, Beth McCormick, MS) "We believe the extra-ordinary efforts of our program coordinators are key to our clients' wellbeing and our unusually low readmission rate." (Kathi Farrell, RN, BSN, PHN, Kathleen Sullivan, RN, MSN) "In real life, we are not usually given the chance to have a do-over. But we are given the chance to continuously improve. With the right skill sets, and the right partners, we can transform." (Eric Newman, MD)

R2,552 Discovery Miles 25 520 Ships in 12 - 17 working days

Most Americans-even those with significant disability-want to live in their homes and communities. Unpaid family members or friends often work as "informal" caregivers, helping those who need assistance- and many feel they have no option but to serve. In contrast, paid personal assistance services workers (PAS) provide a lifeline to those consumers with complex needs and limited social networks. However, there is a crisis looming in the increasing needs for paid PAS and the limited available PAS workforce. Making Their Days Happen explores disability, health, and civil rights, along with relevant federal and state labor policies related to personal assistance services. Lisa Iezzoni addresses the legal context of paid PAS as well as financing mechanisms for obtaining home-based personal assistance. She also draws upon interviews she conducted with paid PAS consumers and PAS workers to explore PAS experiences and their perspectives about their work. Offering recommendations for improving future experiences of PAS consumers and providers, Iezzoni emphasizes that people with disabilities want to be a part of society, and PAS workers who do this low-wage work find satisfaction in helping them achieve their goals.

Besides its core competencies in excellent patient care, the university hospital in Dresden, Germany focuses on team and quality management. In our understanding, team management is one key success factor for hospitals in the future. Excellent nationally and internationally recognised projects and practice proven concepts will be presented by specialists in their fields. After discussing the strategic background and advantages of team oriented management from the hospital CEOs viewpoint, possibilities of aligning individual employee performance with strategic goals under the peculiarities of university hospitals are presented. The concept of shared mental models is then closely discussed on the background of cutting edge results in this field in a guest article by Piet van den Bossche (Dept. of Educational development and Educational Research, Maastricht University, The Netherlands). Fitting just into the latter empirical background, team concepts in Helicopter Emergency Medical Services are described, which rely on shared mental models of all team members. To achieve good Crew Resource Management the Dresden Six Step Approach of CRM improves team performance by introducing psychological know how into simulator based teaching, focusing on shared mental models and team effectiveness. The next chain link of patient safety is risk management representing a vital part of quality management in high risk medical organisations. In this regard, the design and implementation of a local Critical Incident Reporting System (CIRS) in Dresden is illustrated. Consequently the results of our CIRS are openly discussed as well as the changes in daily practice derived from its reports. The next step on the way to business excellence is the utilisation of closed quality management circuits, referring to the classical Deming cycle (plan- do- check- act). In this regard, we describe the results of the first Six Sigma team optimisation project in a German hospital in collaboration with the Chair of Market oriented Corporate Management and Marketing of the University of Dresden. Responsibility for society is further taken by setting up a quality certified trans-regional stroke management network. Using virtual patient gateways under the leadership of the UHD quality in patient care evolves from the local level of one hospital to the entire eastern Saxon region. Most fascinating and challenging, however, is the psychology and team management of large teams and resources under time pressure exemplified in mass casualty incidents and natural disasters directly affecting a level 3 trauma centre as illustrated in the both final chapters. This book is aimed at managers and team leaders, practitioners, and team members in diverse organisations as well as management consultants. This diverse target group illustrates the basic approach of team management. Only the strategy oriented inter-professional co-operation of management and staff within shared mental models across the organisation enables sustained success of all contributors by increasing patient safety and satisfaction.

Access to approved scientific medical literature is vital in the context of providing standard, evidence-based health care. Despite the abundance of medical information, ensuring that it is available to health care professionals in the field remains a challenge. Remote areas in economically disadvantaged sub-Saharan Africa often lack internet facilities or reference libraries. At the same time, the long-term storage of books and other documents is a problem due to climatic factors such as humidity and heat, the presence of pests like insects and rodents, as well as environmental hazards and the lack of trained staff to adequately manage, maintain and distribute literary material. Against this background and based on practical experience, this book compiles a series of common disease management protocols adapted for minimal-resource facilities, formulas for national healthcare schemes (vaccination, antenatal, child care) and other useful documents that can facilitate effective hospital management in low-resource countries. Primarily intended for healthcare workers in The Gambia and other nations with a similar socio-economical background, the book is also a valuable resource for international students and healthcare workers from regions like Europe and the Americas intending to do internships in economically underprivileged geographic areas.

Die Zukunft der Medizin ist weiblich

Von den Medizinstudierenden sind in Deutschland zurzeit uber 60% Frauen, bei den berufstatigen Arzten und Arztinnen machen in den Altersgruppen bis 39 Jahre die Arztinnen einen Anteil von fast 50% aus. Gleichzeitig ist die Zahl der Arztinnen in Fuhrungspositionen nach wie vor gering, aber das wird sich nach Einschatzung vieler Meinungsbildner in der nachsten Zeit andern

Ziel des Buches ist es, Arztinnen, die eine Fuhrungsposition als Oberarztin oder Chefarztin anstreben bzw. bereits innehaben, Hilfsmittel mit auf den Weg zu geben, mit denen sie eine gesunde Fuhrung in der Medizin erfolgreich implementieren und gangige Fehler vermeiden konnen.

Und das finden Sie im Fuhrungshandbuch fur Arztinnen": Kein Erfolg ohne fundierten Hintergrund: Analyse der derzeitigen Lage, der Chancen und auch der Schwierigkeiten, die man als Frau in der Fuhrungsriege der Arzteschaft (noch?) zu erwarten hat; Konkrete Handlungsanweisungen, wie Fuhrung im beruflichen Alltag optimal umgesetzt werden kann; Ubungen und praktische Beispiele, die bei der Umsetzung gesunder Fuhrung helfen

Nur Mut zur Fuhrungsposition: Nutzen Sie das Rustzeug in diesem Buch, um als Arztin eine Fuhrungsposition erfolgreich und gesund fur sich und die Mitarbeiterinnen zu gestalten."
