The Future Hospital in Global Health Systems: The Future Hospital as an Entity.
Health care is changing rapidly. Hospitals are, and will remain, an essential setting to deliver it. We discuss how to maximise the benefits of hospitals in the future in different geographic and health system settings, highlighting a series of cross-cutting issues. We do this by exploring the evolving roles of hospitals and the main factors that we must consider as they adapt. These include changing population and disease profiles, the impact of evolving technology, and new concepts in hospital design and planning. Our focus is on delivering high-quality, patient-centred care while ensuring equitable access, even if strategic decisions require compromise across these functions. The COVID-19 pandemic has shown the importance of hospitals in societies while also revealing the limitations of current structures and the potential of technology to transform hospital services within the broader healthcare system. The aim of this multidisciplinary perspective is to provide an overview of pertinent issues whilst highlighting the challenges and opportunities in optimising future hospital planning, construction, design, and development in high-income (HIC) and low -and medium-income country (LMIC) settings.
期刊介绍:
Policy making and implementation, planning and management are widely recognized as central to effective health systems and services and to better health. Globalization, and the economic circumstances facing groups of countries worldwide, meanwhile present a great challenge for health planning and management. The aim of this quarterly journal is to offer a forum for publications which direct attention to major issues in health policy, planning and management. The intention is to maintain a balance between theory and practice, from a variety of disciplines, fields and perspectives. The Journal is explicitly international and multidisciplinary in scope and appeal: articles about policy, planning and management in countries at various stages of political, social, cultural and economic development are welcomed, as are those directed at the different levels (national, regional, local) of the health sector. Manuscripts are invited from a spectrum of different disciplines e.g., (the social sciences, management and medicine) as long as they advance our knowledge and understanding of the health sector. The Journal is therefore global, and eclectic.
