Decision making strategy in the selection of cook-chill production in hospital foodservicesGreen, Claudia G. 20 September 2005 (has links)
The primary purpose of this study was to develop and test a model for the process of making the decision to select/not select cook-chill for hospital food services. A second purpose was to determine the nature of the decision strategy, analytical versus intuitive, most predictive of satisfaction with cook-chill.
A generic decision model was developed based on an extensive review of literature on decision making. Due to the lack of research on food service systems, a modified Delphi technique was used to identify 1) the factors critical in the process of making the decision to select/not select cook-chill and 2) the characteristics of a successful hospital cook-chill operation. The information gathered from the Delphi technique was used to develop a questionnaire which would measure the applicability of the generic model to the decision to select/not select cook -chill food production.
The generic model was composed of five decision components and one satisfaction component. Using the model as a framework, a questionnaire was developed to test the relationships between the components of the model. Correlations between these components revealed that the use of the model was significantly related with satisfaction with the decision to select/not select cook-chill.
A "Checklist for the Process of Making the Decision to SelectINot Select Cookchill Food Production for Hospital Foodservices" was developed using the model and questionnaire as frameworks. The Checklist consists of 136 questions: 101 questions measuring the decision process and 35 questions measuring satisfaction with the decision. For the purposes of this study, analytical decision making was defined as a process where objective, as opposed to subjective information, was available and was used in the process of making the decision.
The Checklist consisted of questions to which there was a "yes" or "no" response. The higher the number of "yes" responses on the decision component questions, the more analytical the decision process and the higher the correlation with satisfaction. It was statistically determined that 37 "yes" responses resulted in satisfaction with the decision process. The lower the number of "yes" responses on the decision component questions, the more intuitive the decision process and the lower the correlation with satisfaction.
The results of this study are significant in that an extensive review of literature between 1950 and 1990 showed that there was little empirically based research on foodservice systems. The existing research prior to this study did not provide enough information to develop a model for the process of making the decision to select/not select cook-chill production for any foodservice operation. The model developed and tested in this research is generic in nature and should apply equally well in a variety of types of foodservices. It may be necessary to make minor adaptations to the Checklist to address the unique nature of various types of foodservices such as schools, college/universities, military, prisons, hotels, and restaurants. / Ph.

Decision factors that influenced hospital foodservice directors to implement a waste management programBasler, Joann 01 May 1996 (has links)
Economic, environmental, social and political influences made the management of
solid waste or garbage an important issue for all foodservice directors, including those
in health care facilities. The study objectives were to: (1) identify what components
of integrated waste management programs were being used in hospital foodservice
facilities in Oregon, Washington and Idaho, (2) identify decision making factors for
implementing or not implementing components of a solid waste management (SWM)
program, (3) determine which of the decision factors were perceived to be the greatest
barriers to implementing a SWM program, and (4) determine if demographic
characteristics influenced the foodservice director's decision regarding SWM. A
survey was sent to all (N=199) hospital foodservice directors in the three state region.
Of the 164 returned surveys, 75% of the directors reported they had recycling
programs, 51% participated in source reduction and 6% used incineration.
Foodservice labor, space to store recyclables, corporate support, monetary return and
the director's personal feelings were identified as decision factors (p= < .05) Space to
store recyclables and foodservice labor were considered the greatest barriers to recycling. Larger hospitals recycled more often and contracted foodservice operations
participated more in source reduction. Information on the decision factors that were
identified, can provide guidance to other directors as to the critical factors that should
be considered when attempting to implement a successful SWM program and solutions
could be developed to overcome or lessen the effects of the barriers. / Graduation date: 1996
