An analysis of the human resource management function during the decentralisation of Hospital management: case of North West Province

Mothoagae, Mogale Phillemon 10 January 2012 (has links)
Background: The National Department of Health adopted decentralisation of hospital management as a key policy in pursuit of a more efficient, effective, responsive and accountable public sector hospital system. The proposed decentralisation of hospital management represented a fundamental policy shift in the decision making processes between National, Provincial health departments and Hospitals. Provincial health departments were to “delegate significant decision making powers to hospital managers, including the authority to make decisions relating to personnel, procurement, and financial management” Objective: To gain in-depth understanding of the decentralisation of hospital management processes between 1996 and 2007 as it relates to the Human Resource Management function in public hospitals. Methodology: The study design was a descriptive qualitative comparative case study design. Results: Decentralisation was promoted as a policy reform to improve efficiency, equity and effectiveness of hospitals in South Africa. There was no formal policy from the National Department of Health guiding the implementation of decentralisation of hospital management. There was a shift of power over the control of HRM function between 1996 and 2007. Regional hospital gained more space and had more wide range of choices allowed in almost all HRM activities. District Hospital has gained some space and now has moderate choice allowed. The experiences and understanding of health managers vary on what happened during the policy process. Conclusion: The study found conclusive evidence that there are changes to HRM function during the ongoing debate on decentralisation of hospital management. More HRM functions were delegated to Hospitals.

An Empirical Study on the Use of Promotion in Hospitals

Gopalakrishna, Pradeep 12 1900 (has links)
The role of marketing and marketing communication in hospitals has grown in the last decade. The need for hospitals to make careful decisions about their marketing communication efforts is mandated, given the changes taking place in the hospital industry. The purpose of this dissertation was to conduct empirical research to determine whether for-profit and non-profit hospitals perceive and utilize promotion as a marketing strategy element. The two steps taken included: identifying important factors considered by hospital administrators and marketing staff in the development of communication messages designed for patients, hospital staff and medical staff; and testing the factors developed and studying the attitudes of hospital personnel toward promotion using a national sample of hospitals. In phase 1, focus group interviews were conducted in a surrogate for-profit hospital and a surrogate non-profit hospital. In phase 2, an original mail questionnaire was used to collect data from a sample of 80 hospitals. A total of 38 hospitals participated, providing 114 usable responses. Test statistics included content analysis, Chi-Square, Pearson correlation coefficient and Analysis of Variance. The results of the focus group study indicated the practice of marketing in hospitals is in its early growth stages and marketing is viewed as nothing more than advertising and public relations. The results of the mail survey indicated that respondents in small for-profit hospitals with 20 to 30 years of experience as professionals, with key decision making authority, are favorably disposed to marketing and marketing communication. It was also found that respondents in large non-profit hospitals are very positive towards marketing. In contrast, respondents in medium and large for-profit hospitals, who are not directly involved in decision making, tend to be less positive towards marketing. The study serves as a basis for future research which may involve, (1) a larger sample frame, (2) hospitals in inner-city and rural areas, (3) investigation of the association between hospital ownership and hospital efficiency, and (4) development of a profile of respondents by title held, in hospitals.
