Abstract:
The purpose of this paper is to describe an Adult Community Treatment (ACT) program in Dandenong, Victoria, and its effect upon admission rates and time in hospital for 50 of the serviceapos;s most disturbed patients. The implementation of the program was associated with a reduction in the annual re-admission rate from 38% (1989–90) to 21% (1990–91); the total length of hospital stay was also significantly reduced. The results support the value of community support programs in the management of the seriously mentally ill.

Abstract:
General practice engagement (GPE) is an important function, communicating new knowledge, new treatments and new ways of working with GPs and practice staff. It is necessary for health system decision-makers to recognise that GPE takes more than a practice visit. In this case study, the Dandenong District Division of General Practice found that, to be effective, GPE must be practice-appropriate (planned) and targeted within a whole-of-practice approach. Practice visits need to be supported by other complementary strategies and delivered by a trusted representative from institutions that appreciate the business of general practice and the culture in which it operates. Strategies require coordination so that general practice is not overwhelmed by simultaneous requests for change

Abstract:
Background The HOMES (Home-Oriented Management of Early Psychosis) programme is a new home-based management programme for people presenting for the firsttime with psychotic illnesses. The present paper aims to present preliminary data as to the efficacy of this programme and factors identified as being associated with successful prevention of hospital admission.Method The programme applied to all the people presenting to the Dandenong Hospital Department of Psychiatry with first-episode psychosis who are considered suitable at first assessment for home-based management. A programme description is included in the paper. Prospective evaluation data on the first 31 people managed within the programme is presented.Results Twenty-two out of 31 people were managed without the necessity for hospital admission. Illness severity was not related to the ability to manage this group of people outside of hospital. The level of social support and duration of untreated psychosis prior to treatment, may be most closely related to home-based treatment success.Conclusions Home-based management of people with first-episode psychosis is feasible and offers a viable alternative to admission for this group. Home-based treatment is dependent on the degree of social support but is independent of the degree of illness severity.

Abstract:
Abstract Introduction: Nasopharyngeal carcinoma is the most common malignancy found in the head and neck area. Non-specific initial symptoms and hidden locations often make it difficult to diagnose early nasopharyngeal carcinoma. The limitations of tools and human resources in the district are a problem in enforcing and finding patients with nasopharyngeal carcinoma in this situation. Objective: The purpose of this study is to observe the prevalence of nasopharyngeal carcinoma in Departement of Otorhinolaryngology-Head and Neck Surgery Panyabungan District Hospital. Method: This study collecting data from medical record of Nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) at Panyabungan District Hospital. Result: The distribution of NPC patients during January-December 2018 there were 10 patients. NPC base on gender male 50% and female 50%. NPC based on age groups in 46-55 years is 40%, 56-65 years old is 20% and 16-25 years, 26-35 years, 36-45 years, and 66-75 years each of 10%. NPC patients based of clinical appearance is limadenophaty colli is 100%, epistaxis 80%, Nasal congesty 70%.ear fulness 40% and diplopia 30%. NPC based on histophatologycal types is WHO type I 10%, WHO type II 50% and WHO type III 40%. Conclusion: Nasopharyngeal carcinoma is a malignant tumor originating from the nasopharyngeal epithelium. The patient NPC were diagnosed at an advanced stage. All of patients showed enlargement of neck limph nodes and some showed diplopia.

Abstract:
The Psychiatric Unit at Wexham Park Hospital has served a population of 230,000 with no entry to long-stay beds since 1972. There have been between 45 and 60 available beds for all types of mental illness except dementia. Various group homes and unstaffed halfway houses have been started, but the accumulation of more disabled patients showed the need for both a staffed group home, and rehabilitation to fit them for it. There was no separate ward or building in the hospital which could be used, and so rehabilitation had to be arranged on an acute ward. The staffed group home has a lower staff-patient ratio than a hospital hostel.

Abstract:
Includes bibliographical references
The use and demand of echocardiography has increased worldwide. In developed countries, this has not been translated into improved access outside tertiary centres. Previous studies have favoured the appropriate use of echocardiography over its clinical impact, limiting generalisability to resource constrained settings. Objectives: To assess the impact of an echocardiographic service at district hospital level in Cape Town, South Africa. Methods: A prospective, cross-sectional study was performed. A total of 210consecutive patients, referred to the echocardiography clinic over a five-month period, were recruited. Transthoracic echocardiography was evaluated by its indication, new information provided, correlation with referring doctor's diagnosis and subsequent management plan. Impact included the escalation and de-escalation in treatment, as well as usefulness without a change in management. Results: The results show that 84% of the patients' management was impacted by echocardiography. Valvular lesions were the main indication. The most frequent contribution was information provided towards the diagnosis of heart failure and assessment post-myocardial infarction. Fifty-six per cent of the echocardiograms confirming the referring doctor's diagnosis still had a significant impact. The rational prescription of medication had the major impetus, followed by de-escalation of therapy and screening patients for referral to tertiary facilities. Conclusion: Echocardiography has a positive impact on patient management outside tertiary settings, where the definition of impact appears to be different. The value of a normal study, screening prior to upstream referral and usefulness irrespective of change has been established. This should alert policy makers towards the risk of restricted access and promote training.

Abstract:
The study emanated from the researcher’s experience and involvement in clinical nursing and nursing management. The researcher noted how heavy losses of recruited professional nurses might have had an influence on the quality of service delivery. It is a costly and time-consuming task to recruit enough nurses into the profession and retention of staff is especially difficult. There had been a significant increase in the number of professional nurses leaving the district hospitals either to primary health care service, private hospitals or other countries. Before the commencement of the study the turnover rate at the district hospital where the study was conducted, almost doubled the accepted norm, which was ten percent of the staff. For those reasons the researcher decided to conduct a study named, “Accelerated staff turnover among professional nurses at a district hospital.” The constant heavy losses of qualified nurses from the profession constitute one of the serious challenges for nursing managers. The researcher wanted answers to the following question: “What were your experiences of your job as a professional nurse at the district hospital?” The objectives of the study were: · to explore and describe factors leading to high staff turnover of professional nurses at a district hospital · to develop guidelines to help retain professional nurses. The design of this study, which was conducted in one of the district hospitals in the Makana Local Service Area in the Eastern Cape, is qualitative, descriptive and contextual. Informed permission for conducting the research was obtained from relevant authorities and participants were asked to sign a consent form before the researcher proceeded with the study. Participants that met the selection criteria were selected by means of purposive sampling. Data was obtained by means of semi-structured telephonic interviews that were audio-taped and later transcribed verbatim. To ensure trustworthiness of the study, the researcher applied the four strategies as proposed by Lincoln and Guba (De Vos, 2002:351) namely, credibility, transferability, dependability and confirmability. Collected data was analysed according to the descriptive method proposed by Tesch (in Creswell, 1994:154). The services of an independent coder, who was provided with transcripts and a protocol to guide data analysis, were utilised. A consensus meeting was held between the researcher and the independent coder to discuss the identified themes and sub-themes. Following the data analysis, a literature control was undertaken to highlight the similarities to and differences in comparison between this and previous studies. Four major themes and sub-themes were identified through analysis.

Abstract:
The intention of this thesis was to challenge how we, as architects are appropriating new formations of space within the city. The research began as an exploration into how a contemporary African city space could be envisioned, a future trajectory of design thinking that challenges normative systems of design. The diverse nature of South African cities should have an architecture that responds to its lived reality and one that reflects cultural difference. This exploration was narrowed down to view a need that ran across cultural lines. I chose to do this through looking at various health systems that prevail in our current society. The challenge was to critically seek out new ways that one could accommodate for various cultural beliefs while viewing these various health practices. These explorations were carried out in two sections - the first section looks at our current condition and what the prevailing health systems are in our society, as well as the challenges these various views on health pose. The second section focuses on a spatial understanding of how these systems are carried out in our city and seeks to analyse the various spatiality's of healing practices. The idea is to search for how new spaces of healthcare could be realised that reflect cultural difference, rituals and practices and which respond to a South African condition.

BACKGROUND: The concept of consumer satisfaction is gaining momentum across all business sectors worldwide. In keeping with this trend, health care systems are now also being reviewed to assess patient satisfaction with regard to the quality of care provided. Patient satisfaction is an instrumental tool for identifying shortcomings and challenges of the health system, and provides patients with a constructive outlet to rate their hospital experience. AIM: To determine the perceived levels of patient satisfaction with health care services. METHODOLOGY: A descriptive cross-sectional study was conducted using patients who attended the Outpatients Department of Untunjambili Hospital in Kwa-Zulu Natal. A sample of 250 patients was selected using systematic random sampling. The research instrument, a structured questionnaire consisted of 23 questions which were subdivided into five categories, namely: biographical data; accessibility to the hospital; infrastructure; overall satisfaction and general comments. The 5-Point Likert Scale was used to determine the perceived levels of patient satisfaction. Data collected from the responses was analysed using the SPSS Programme, Version 22.0. A Significance level of (p=0.05) was applied. RESULTS: The response rate of the study was 99.2% (n=248).The majority of the respondents were female (75.4%) and aged between 20-30 years old. The relative ratio of males to females was approximately 1:3. Nearly half of the participants (48.4%) had a secondary education, and a high degree of illiteracy was noted (21.8%). The majority of patients relied on taxis as the mode of transport to reach the hospital (71.4%), with 55.2% having to pay more than R15.00 for travel costs. While statements relating to personality such as staff friendliness, and doctors treating patients respectfully scored highly (93.5%), more than two thirds reported dissatisfaction with the lengthy waiting times (71.8%). In terms of infrastructure, respondents were mainly satisfied with the seating arrangements, cleanliness and air circulation, but were unhappy with the state of the toilet facilities and the unavailability of drinking water. Overall, 90.3% of patients were satisfied with the level of care they received at Untunjambili Hospital, with 89.5% suggesting that they would recommend the institution to others.

Abstract:
Master of Public Health - MPH
Background: The largest focus areas for the department of health is ensuring access to quality healthcare. The district health system (DHS) model remains the vehicle used by the district managers to deliver on the health department’s goals, objectives and priority focus areas. Strengthening the district health system platform is therefore important to the department to improve access and quality of care to the clients serviced in the province. The district hospitals play a fundamental role since they support primary health care (PHC) and serve as the entry point to more specialised care. The efficient management of beds in the district hospitals is the key in ensuring access to care and preventing bed blocking. Bed Utilisation Rate (BUR) and Average Length of Stay (ALOS) are indicators used to measure the efficiency of hospital beds. This study provides a description of the trends in bed utilisation within the inpatient wards of eight district hospitals in the Cape Town metro district in the 2016-2017 financial period. Methodology: To analyse and compare wards a quantitative approach was used. Inpatient ward activity reports for eight district hospitals were accessed from the department of health’s routine data collection repository. A total of fifty-five wards were compared across small and large hospitals for BUR and ALOS during the financial year period 1 April 2016 to 31 March 2017. Data entry was done in MS EXCEL and analyses were done using STATA 11.0.

Abstract:
Context: The clinical biochemistry department at the North Middlesex University Hospital successfully won funding under the pathology modernisation initiative to automate the core laboratory in 2000. Following procurement procedures, the contract was awarded to two vendors who offered an 'islands of automation' solution as opposed to the popular fully tracked solution. The automation was installed with minor process change, but process reviews occurring in 2003 with the advent of Lean Six Sigma. Methods: The Executive War College meeting in 2003 introduced new quality management tools Lean, Six Sigma and activity-based costing, to the pathology environment. These methods were incorporated into the clinical biochemistry department and the impact of these was studied over a five year period to assess if any additional benefit could be offered when compared to the implementation of automation on its own. The later being introduced using traditional process management methodology. The process review expanded to include the specimen reception area, as delays at this point had a major impact on the performance of the automated laboratory. Results: Introduction of process management tools improved turn around time for key indicators by as much as 50%, compared to automation alone, whilst removing the variation in time to result due to the pull system of samples setting a defined time for samples to arrive for analysis. The total laboratory space for clinical biochemistry was reduced by 32% allowing for the formation of a molecular laboratory and increasing the sample reception area by 133%. The avoided build cost to extend the department for these works was £265,500 .. The value added activity post process change was scored at 17.21 % which was an international best for laboratories who had been assessed using this tool. Using benchmarking data, £1,350,000 of avoided costs, in the year 2007-8, were calculated as a result of the changes made to the service. A staff survey of the changes supported the change process with positive feedback. Automation of request forms using electronic ordering show a dramatic improvement on quality compared to the hand written forms, which had a Sigma level of between 2 and 3, improving to 4.1 Sigma when the electronic requesting went live. ii Conclusion: All process tools strongly recommend taking a baseline reading of the data before making any change, this recommendation was verified as a must in this study. The advent of automation proved very popular with the staff as it removed repetitive functions and made some manual processes obsolete, thus improving morale. The impact of automation however did not improve significantly the turnaround times, but enabled sample archiving and retrieval to be less prone to error. The study found that by aligning the work processes in specimen reception to those processes in the clinical biochemistry department, this created the major benefit. Therefore a strong recommendation is that process managing of specimen reception areas is a must before undertaking any purchase of automated systems. Any delay in the laboratory is minor compared to the potential for delay that poor process can give in the pre-analytical phase. Benchmarking allowed a year on year comparison to be made, but the study highlighted the need to drill into the data and understand the service change when looking at cost per unit. This allowed the return on investment for the new technology to be assessed, in this study the return was realised in eighteen months. Benchmarking highlighted that the quality improvement that new assays provided to patient care impacted marginally on the test volumes but had a 15% impact on the non-pay budget. The use of activity-based costing compliments both Lean and Six Sigma by allowing the true cost of the work to be assessed with both value adding activity and avoided cost, the money not spent as opposed to direct cost cuts, to be calculated. The activitybased costing allowed staff to focus their jobs onto those tasks which were appropriate to their grade and identify and reduce those tasks which were not, improving job satisfaction and morale. Avoiding cost through good process change has a positive impact on both the patient and the budget, which cannot be achieved by cost improvement programmes based on a percentage change in the money allocated to the department.

Abstract:
AbstractIn this chapter, we detail the first major re-organisation of the NHS since its inception and the consequences for community nursing. The 1974 wholesale re-organisation was born out of frustrations with the management and fragmentation of services resulting from the tripartite system. Services were bought together in a unitary model, centrally controlled but geographically organised. Local Authorities (LAs) were divested of many of their healthcare responsibilities including community nursing, which was transferred under the responsibility of newly created Area Health Authorities (AHAs). There was optimism that bringing community nursing under the NHS umbrella would foster a new era of co-ordinated working between all disciplines in the system, such as hospital nursing. Unfortunately, many of these intended aspirations were not realised despite the importance of the service to policy agendas emphasising integration, out-of-hospital care and prevention of ill health. In terms of managing and financing the district nursing service, this was not simplified by the re-organisation and population coverage continued as a mix of geographical and attachment to GP services. We conclude this chapter by emphasising the increasing demand for community and district nursing services. It became apparent in this era that the re-organisation did not bring any significant improvements and thus the attention shifted again towards organisational and management solutions to the NHS’ problems.

AbstractThis chapter centres on the publishing of the NHS Long Term Plan in 2019 and subsequent revised Health and Social Care Act (2022), both of which focus on integrated, out-of-hospital approaches to health service delivery. The creation of a layered system across geographical levels is advocated, with nested levels of ‘place’ and ‘neighbourhood’ intended to be the building blocks of Integrated Care Systems (ICS), which replaced CCGs in July 2022. We introduce the concept of newly created, ‘neighbourhood level’, Primary Care Networks (PCNs) of general practices and how district nurses fit into them, especially with regard to their organisation around geographical versus GP registered lists. Whilst not explicitly mentioned in the H&SC Act, it is clear that the Act situates community-based services as essential in the context of the desire to reduce the amount of hospital care, which has implications for district nursing services in particular. This mode of care delivery will require multi-disciplinary team working across all levels of the new system whereby community nurses will be required to liaise and co-ordinate with primary and social care to deliver services. Continuance of case management approaches for patients with complex needs and lack of funding in the social care system, means that we discuss in this chapter, the further strain on already pressured community nursing teams.

Taking maternal services to pregnant women: The community midwifery model. Population Council, 2005. http://dx.doi.org/10.31899/rh16.1011.

Full text
Abstract:
Evidence from a number of studies globally has shown a reduction in maternal and perinatal mortality when women have a skilled attendant present at birth. In Kenya, a skilled attendant assists at only 42 percent of births. In Central Province, over 70 percent deliver with a skilled attendant compared to 28 percent in Western Province. Results from one district in Western Province where midwives were given the necessary equipment and support to assist women during birth at home, showed a significant increase in home births attended by skilled health workers between 2001 and 2003 and a similar decrease in utilization of traditional birth attendants. As noted in this brief, this an indication that skilled attendance in the community is possible and a good alternative for women who are unable to reach a health facility. Building on these results, a Community Midwifery Model was developed that focuses on empowering midwives living in the community to assist women during pregnancy, childbirth, and the postpartum period in their homes, manage minor complications, and facilitate referral when necessary and transfer to the hospital.

Rapid appraisal of IPP-VI training of ANMs in Uttar Pradesh. Population Council, 1996. http://dx.doi.org/10.31899/rh1996.1005.

Full text
Abstract:
This report provides findings of a rapid appraisal of the Auxiliary Nurse Midwife (ANM) training program in Uttar Pradesh, India. The appraisal was undertaken by the Population Council and State Innovations in Family Planning Agency (SIFPSA). As SIFPSA is in the process of planning a training program to strengthen the technical skills and competence of ANMs and update their contraceptive knowledge, it was felt that a rapid appraisal of the training program would help in understanding the strengths and weaknesses of previous training efforts. The ANM training initiatives of SIFPSA would then build upon the experiences gained from earlier training programs and the existing training needs of ANMs. The emphasis was on improving ANMs' technical and counseling skills by providing on-the-job practical training. The program was a three-week skill-based training, during which ANMs were attached to a CHC/PPC or a district hospital. This was followed by one week of training at an ANM Training Centre in IEC and counseling. The objective was to review how the training program was organized and how it helped improve the technical skills and competence of ANMs.
