Percepção dos profissionais da área da saúde sobre o processo de acreditação hospitalar nivel I (ONA) - caso do Hospital Geral de Caxias do Sul

Junqueira, Sandro de Freitas 30 July 2015 (has links)
A acreditação é o procedimento de avaliação dos recursos institucionais, voluntário, periódico, reservado e sigiloso, que tende a garantir a qualidade da assistência através de padrões previamente aceitos. Este trabalho foi realizado no Hospital Geral de Caxias do Sul (HG), entidade de ensino sem fins lucrativos que atende exclusivamente ao Sistema Único de Saúde, localizado na Serra Gaúcha. Esta dissertação teve por objetivo verificar a percepção dos profissionais da área de saúde na implantação do processo de Acreditação Nível I – ONA, bem como identificar as estratégias utilizadas pelos profissionais de saúde para a manutenção do processo de Acreditação e a organização dos processos assistenciais e administrativos do hospital. Também foram analisados os pontos fortes e fracos diagnosticados pela instituição acreditadora. A metodologia utilizada foi documental, qualitativa e quantitativa, com objetivos exploratórios e descritivos. Foi utilizada a análise de conteúdo segundo Bardin (2010) para o tratamento e interpretação dos dados qualitativos e na quantitativa com a utilização da escala Likert, os dados foram analisados através de estatística descritiva, teste t de studente análise de variância não paramétrica. Os resultados mostraram que, após o processo de acreditação, os profissionais da área da saúde perceberam melhoria da qualidade da assistência. E na perspectiva desses profissionais, o engajamento, a responsabilidade, o envolvimento, a motivação, a participação no planejamento, o acesso a recursos materiais e a facilidade para se adaptar ao processo foram os fatores que mais contribuíram para a percepção de melhoria da qualidade da assistência prestada, também relatado pelos gerentes e diretores a mudança na cultura da instituição. Espera-se que este estudo traga subsídios teóricos para que hospitais com a característica da instituição estudada utilizem estas informações na reorganização de seus processos assistenciais e administrativos com a finalidade de alcançar a certificação desejada. Como sugestão de trabalhos futuros, realizar o comparativo entre técnicos de enfermagem e enfermeiros para identificar a existência de diferenças na percepção e também avaliar suas percepções e comprometimento para a busca do Nível II da Acreditação Hospitalar. / Submitted by Ana Guimarães Pereira (agpereir@ucs.br) on 2016-05-11T17:01:12Z No. of bitstreams: 1 Dissertacao Sandro de Freitas Junqueira.pdf: 1164067 bytes, checksum: 988f1be4f8c0f09a65e20a59083a96f6 (MD5) / Made available in DSpace on 2016-05-11T17:01:12Z (GMT).

Evaluation of quality management practices in the Ekurhuleni public hospitals

Nyakala, Kgashane Stephen 04 June 2014 (has links)
M.Tech. (Operations Management) / This study has demonstrated that continuous quality improvement and total quality management are the names for a philosophy of management that aims to help outcomes in both the individual and organizations of all kinds, eliminating quality waste during health care delivery service. In an effort to make a contribution to addressing the current challenges, areas of poor patient and lack of quality health care are explored in this study. Patients and healthcare professionals‟ views on Quality Management (QM) practices are also explored. Therefore, for the purposes of this dissertation, the researcher has expanded the QM definition. The poor patient care and shortage of skilled nursing practitioners‟ in nursing has indicated the need for top management commitment to measure, improve and provide high-quality health care for all its citizens. This is mainly due to lack of quality knowledge and skills, patients‟ education, and communication skills. In addition, no formalised framework exists on how quality of care in the context of nursing should occur, despite policy on quality health care being a legal requirement (National Department of Health, 2007:11). The purpose of this dissertation was to evaluate quality management practices in the Ekurhuleni Metropolitan Municipality public hospitals. Quality management for health care delivery in public hospitals in Gauteng Department of Health was determined and conceptualised and a framework developed on which the improvement of a quality strategy could be based. Altogether three (3) public hospitals throughout Gauteng Ekurhuleni region participated in this dissertation. A triangulation approach was adopted to collect data, analyse and answer the research questions. In this dissertation both quantitative and qualitative methods of data analysis were employed to analyse data derived from self-administered (open and closed) questionnaires, whilst semi-structured interviews were also conducted with the hospital unit manager (see Annexure 1 & 5).This, in turn, increased the validity of the empirical study part of this dissertation and enhanced the rigorous use of both quantitative and qualitative data.
