Rostering is an important process to enable efficient, effective and safe delivery of health care, and one which receives little attention. The work outlined in this case study demonstrates that the analysis of rostering processes from a range of perspectives including the organisation, staff and the roster manager can identify significant opportunities for improvement. Roster governance is not universally applied, nor understood, which can result in dissonant expectations between managers and staff and a lack of transparency in how and why decisions about rostering are made. Redesigning roster processes can promote more effective governance and improve organisational efficiency.

At the present moment, many hospitals are going through a process of change directed at the integrated delivery of health care. Enterprise Systems (ES) are increasingly used to support this process and to manage hospitals on a coherent basis. We also know, however, that ES implementation itself, can be viewed as an organizational change process that affects many stakeholders. For that reason it is relevant to study how ES implementation takes place within hospitals and how it tends to impact the existing organizational arrangements. The purpose of this chapter is therefore to describe and analyze how ES implementation within a hospital affects the interests of stakeholders and which specific problems may arise as a result. This chapter uses the evidence of a case study to reveal some important dimensions of the organizational change issues related to ES implementation within hospitals.

Governance in a government hospital setup is complicated due to its economic and financial dimensions but also incorporates societal responsibility. The current study focuses on the processes and procedures as the key factor of corporate governance. This paper presents evidence of a comprehensive range of procedures related to governing healthcare quality undertaken at the corporate governance level. The study explores the viewpoint of the stakeholders including patients, doctors, and the management. The aim of the study is to identify indicators of effective governance in an emerging country like India where the state regulates the health system. For this purpose, three major hospitals of Delhi – AIIMS, Safdarjung, and Ram Manohar Lohia hospitals – were studied. The response of 582 respondents was analyzed using logit regression. The study documents the comfort level of patients with the doctor, the ability of the doctors to address the concern of patience, registration time in the hospital, and easy availability of the medicine improves the corporate governance of the hospital. The main contribution of the research is analyzing the health care system in an emerging market like India which is characterized by the complexity of interaction between the environment and policies related to health care.

The development of the pharmaceutical industry is one of the priority tasks of our state, aimed at providing the population of the Russian Federation with modern safe and effective medicines. The solution to this problem is impossible without the formation of a highly qualified personnel potential that meets the demand and expectations of the pharmaceutical market and society as a whole. In this regard, in the system of training of pharmacists in recent years, quite dynamic and flexible transformations have been taking place, dictated by the urgent needs of domestic health care. It should be noted that in the process of implementing this educational standard, the competency-based approach to organizing the process of training modern pharmacists comes to the fore. One of the effective tools for the formation of professional competencies in various educational fields is the case study method. Case study is a training method based on the analysis of real situations from various areas of professional activity and contributing to the development of specialist competency. The competency-based orientation of the case study method is in line with modern ideas about the organization of the educational process for the training of pharmacists. The case study method is actively used in the process of teaching disciplines of the curriculum of the Federal State Budget Educational Establishment of Higher Education KubGMU of the Ministry of Health of Russia, specialty 33.05.01 Pharmacy. Examples of case study tasks as educational technology are presented in the work programs of the curriculum disciplines of the specialty 33.05.01 Pharmacy developed at the Department of Pharmacy. Depending on the content of the taught discipline, these tasks simulate a particular situation from the professional activities of pharmacists, offered to students for a comprehensive analysis and evaluation. The use of this educational technology contributes to the integration of knowledge, skills acquired in the learning process and their competency-based profiling in accordance with the current level of development of domestic health care.
