Healthcare Reform, Quality and Safety : Perspectives, Participants, Partnerships and Prospects in 30 Countries Paperback / softback
by Jeffrey (Macquarie University, Sydney, Australia) Braithwaite, Yukihiro Matsuyama, Julie (Peter Pan Nursery and Forest School, UK) Johnson
Paperback / softback
Description
This book offers a global perspective on healthcare reform and its relationship with efforts to improve quality and safety.
It looks at the ways reforms have developed in 30 countries, and specifically the impact national reform initiatives have had on the quality and safety of care.
It explores how reforms drive quality and safety improvement, and equally how they act to negate such goals.
Every country included in this book is involved in a reform and improvement process, but each takes place in a particular social, cultural, economic and developmental context, leading to differing emphases and varied progress.
Methods for tackling common problems - financing, efficiencies, effectiveness, evidence-based practice, institutional reforms, quality improvement, and patient safety initiatives - also differ.
Representatives from each nation provide a chapter to convey their own situation.
