Abstract:

This thesis examines industrial welfarism in Australia from 1890 to 1965. This period witnessed the gradual spread of the welfarism movement throughout Australian industry as employers sought ways to increase productivity and control in the face of external challenges. Once reaching its peak in the immediate post-War period, the welfarism movement was gradually subsumed as part of the increasing formalisation of personnel management. Waves of interest in welfare provision coincided with periods of labour shortage and/or labour militancy in Australia, indicating its dual role in the management

According to that most of the real systems have nonlinear behaviors, it can be approximated them by polytopic linear uncertain models such as Linear Parameter Varying (LPV) and Takagi-Sugeno (TS) models.

Abstract:

A survey of triage systems used in Health Department of Western Australia accident and emergency departments was undertaken to examine differences in practices between departments with and without designated triage nurses (TNs). One questionnaire surveyed 93 nurses in seven departments with TNs, a similar second questionnaire surveyed 89 nurses in 16 departments without TNs, and a third questionnaire was used in a structured telephone interview of receptionists in hospitals without TNs. Data were analysed using frequencies, percentages, means, standard deviations and ranges with common themes

Abstract:

Recent years have seen an increase in self-harm behaviours amongst children and young people. In tandem, the amount of research on the phenomenon has also grown. However, despite the evident importance of care staff attitudes in the treatment of those who self-harm, an examination of the literature indicated a limited number of studies on how clinicians view such behaviour in the young. The aim of this thesis was to examine the attitudes of health care staff toward child self-harm. Within the study, it is argued that factors pertaining to both patients (age, gender and rate of admission) and c

Introduction: In 2001, the Universal Coverage (UC) policy was introduced in Thailand. This policy aimed to provide equal access to health care regardless of socioeconomic status.

Soon after the introduction of the UC there was evidence of health inequalities among beneficiaries of different schemes.

Abstract:

South African medical schemes spend billions of Rands each year on medical care costs for their beneficiaries near their end of life. Hospi-centric benefit design, fee-for-service reimbursement arrangements and fragmented, silo-based delivery of care result in high, often unnecessary spending near the end of life. Factors including an ageing population, increasing incidence rates of cancer and other non-communicable diseases, and high levels of multi-morbidity among beneficiaries near their end of life further drive end-of-life care costs. Low levels of hospice or palliative care utilisation,
