Knowledge Transfer and Retention in Health Care
BücherAngebote / Angebote:
Over the last few decades advances in health care
services have allowed for the effective treatment of
many illnesses. The only problem is that proven,
effective treatments are not consistently applied in
most health care settings. The question is, if we
know better, why are we not doing better? This book
attempts to answer this question from multiple
perspectives. Using a qualitative research design,
clinicians from an acute care setting were
interviewed about an integrated care pathway for
congestive heart failure, two years
post-implementation. What follows is an exploration
into the impact of system design, organizational
culture, and individual will on the eventual disuse
of the pathway. As patients begin to demand more
consistent care, it will be up to health system
leaders to find ways to address these barriers to
sustainable knowledge transfer.
