Organisational design for an integrated oncological department
نویسندگان
چکیده
OBJECTIVE The outcomes of a Strength, Weakness, Opportunities and Threat (SWOT) analysis of three Integrated Oncological Departments were compared with their present situation three years later to define factors that can influence a successful implementation and development of an Integrated Oncological Department in- and outside (i.e. home care) the hospital. RESEARCH DESIGN Comparative Qualitative Case Study. METHODS Auditing based on care-as-usual norms by an external, experienced auditing committee. RESEARCH SETTING Integrated Oncological Departments of three hospitals. RESULTS Successful multidisciplinary care in an integrated, oncological department needs broad support inside the hospital and a well-defined organisational plan.

متن کاملConsidering Pricing Problem in a Dynamic and Integrated Design of Sustainable Closed-loop Supply Chain Network
Flexible and dynamic supply chain network design problem has been studied by many researchers during past years. Since integration of short-term and long-term decisions in strategic planning leads to more reliable plans, in this paper a multi-objective model for a sustainable closed-loop supply chain network design problem is proposed. The planning horizon of this model contains multiple strate...
