520 "Hospitals today face a huge number of challenges,
including new patterns of disease, rapidly evolving
medical technologies, ageing populations and continuing
budget constraints. This book is written by clinicians for
clinicians and hospital managers, and those who design and
operate hospitals. It sets out why hospitals need to
change as the patients they treat and the technology to
treat them changes. In a series of chapters by leading
authorities in their field, it challenges existing models,
reviews best practice from many countries and presents
clear policy recommendations for policymakers and hospital
administrators. It covers the main patient groups and
conditions as well as those departments that make modern
effective care possible, in imaging and laboratory
medicine. Each chapter looks at patient pathways, aspects
of workforce, required levels of specialisation and
technology, and the opportunities and challenges for
optimising the delivery of services in the hospital of the
future"--|cProvided by publisher.
