Organisation Development in Health Care cover

This insightful book explores the relationship between organizational development and health care efficiency, emphasizing the need for structural and human resource alignment in Organisation Development in Health Care.

Published in 2002, Organisation Development in Health Care delves into the critical relationship between organizational development and the enhancement of quality and efficiency in health care systems. This international volume emphasizes that for health care services to improve and maintain high standards, any structural and procedural changes must be accompanied by a robust development of human resources. The insights presented within this book are essential for understanding the complex dynamics of health care systems worldwide.

Across the globe, health systems grapple with the dual challenge of controlling costs while striving to improve the quality and accessibility of care. Despite significant reforms over the past decades, many persistent issues remain unresolved. Organisation Development in Health Care brings together contributions from experts in both Europe and America, providing a diverse array of research that explores these ongoing challenges. Each chapter offers valuable perspectives on organizational reconfiguration, particularly in the UK, highlighting effective strategies and practices.

This compilation serves as a vital resource for health care academics, policy makers, managers, and practitioners. By examining how to align structural changes with human resource development, the book aims to foster a deeper understanding of how to achieve lasting improvements in health care services. Readers will find themselves well-equipped to navigate the latest trends and research in the field, making it an indispensable addition to their professional library.

'...the book has a reassuringly contemporaneous feel...something for everyone...' Health Matters '...this book is a useful resource for readers who wish to gain an overview of some of the main issues of organisation development in health care, and understand the approach to these issues taken by scholars and practitioners in the management disciplines.'
