Health education as such, is not an end in itself: it is a strategy for the achievement of a much more important, over-all objective; the maintenance or, where possible, the improvement in the community's welfare. Health education is intended to motivate a change in behaviour among a certain target audience which will result in an improvement in the community's welfare. “Welfare†is a flexible term. It can mean something as broad as “quality of life†or some quite specific aspect of this quality of life. Health education strategies might be intended to bring about a reduction in morbidity and mortality due to some specific harmful behaviour, tobacco smoking for example, or...
Patient-driven computers in primary care
Although primary prevention strategies have great potential to improve health across the general population in a cost effective way, they appear relatively under-utilized. A good example is the provision of screening and brief intervention for alcohol misuse in general practice (primary care). Several reviews and analyses have established that brief interventions provided by primary care physicians can significantly reduce individuals' alcohol consumption. Despite this, detection of, and intervention for, excessive drinking among primary care patients is known to be low, with primary care physicians likely to provide advice only when patients' smoking or alcohol consumption levels are high...
Private and public hospitals
Public services are experiencing more discerning and discriminating customers, who may choose between private and public sector services. While there is sufficient evidence indicating that private companies have higher productivity and profitability than public ones, there is little research comparing service quality between the two sectors. Here we compare service quality between public and private hospitals. The enhanced focus on customer satisfaction in contemporary marketing and management sectors appears to have led to widespread attention for patient satisfaction in the more specialized healthcare sector. This trend is characterized by a move away from the traditionally fragmented, episode...

He made life-or-death decisions monitoring surgery patients during grueling 12-hour shifts as an open-heart recovery nurse. Now, as director in charge of nursing administrative support at a hospital in Winter Haven, Florida, Matthews benefits from the rare privilege of having an insider's edge on the job. Main Course In a way, Matthews' job represents the flip side of his previous nursing positions. Instead of seeing patients, he assesses how many nurses are needed on a particular floor. He converts staffing provided by registered nurses (RNs), licensed...

The possible merging of General Motors and Chrysler is seen by most analysts as a desperate move to survive. However, it is still unclear how such merging would result to anything positive for either company or for the US auto industry as a whole. The only beneficiaries of the possible merging are the DaimlerChrysler's shareholders who are hoping to finally ditch the Chrysler Group. Buying the Chrysler Group would put General Motors, world's largest automaker and maker of popular GM Buick parts in a bad position due to the basic fact that Chrysler is an embodiment of everything that GM is trying to avoid which is to become overly reliant on light trucks resulting to excessive production and...

For many of us change is a difficult process. In organizations like healthcare it seems to advance at a snail's pace sometimes. There is a need for change in healthcare, most agree, though we would be hard pressed to agree upon the changes needed. One incentive for change is pay-for-performance programs now beginning in several areas. I would like to describe a couple that affect primary care physicians and then give a few suggestions as to how to adopt changes to take advantage of these programs. Even if you are not in a primary care physician program, the methods suggested for change will be helpful, I believe. In 2006 Medicare plans to institute a pay-for-performance program at the primary care...
When done properly, peer review is an important process that helps hospitals and their doctors ensure consistent, high quality patient treatment. Hospitals can identify at-risk physicians; physicians can help improve quality of care for patients. Why is this process so difficult? It's simple - hospital politics, economic advantage and personalities. The current physician peer review system, created by Congress in 1986 through HCQIA legislation, was intended to promote higher quality patient healthcare. Unfortunately, Congress did not foresee that hospital peer review actually puts physicians into an environment where political, economic and personality conflicts can easily render the process...

Today, many hospitals are looking to independent review organizations to provide hospital peer reviews on sentinel events and bad outcomes that occur in their hospital. Why? Well it's no secret that the peer review process often does not work very well inside hospitals for a couple of reasons. First, all physicians are too busy working on patients and so peer reviews never get done. Second, there is a lot of conflict of interest associated with peer review committees. Hospital staffs have competitive pressures among the doctors working there. Oftentimes this can lead to unfair determinations against a doctor for competitive reasons.Outsourcing hospital peer review cases is an emerging a best...
