The main principles for the management of health organizations

By: Bruce Wembulua

Essay from the year 2016 in the subject Health - Public Health, grade: 28/30, , course: Health Management, language: English, abstract: It is known that better health leads to faster economic growth which in turn, catalyzed by the equitable distribution of wealth, leads to healthier populations. Given this statement, the introduction of management notions in health care provision can be considered as one of the more relevant health sector innovations of our era. Management has been discussed, practiced, and written about since the beginning of time. Although health care management as a separate discipline is of more recent origin, it is sustained by solid principles stated long before by famous theorists such as Frederick Taylor, father of scientific management, Henri Fayol - who developed “Fayolism”-, Max Weber and many others. Most of them asserted that health care management, as part of management in general, involves certain functions and activities that must be performed to achieve effectively and efficiently the set goals of the organization. As there is continuous need to improve the quality of health services, improving the efficiency and effectiveness of health care provision will require well-developed skills among managers. These skills come through clear understanding of basic principles that sustain efficient application of management in health organizations. Lines below, try to describe succinctly main principles of health management as applied in the actual modern context.

Cold chain management and effective delivery of immunization services

By: Bruce Wembulua

Essay from the year 2016 in the subject Health - Public Health, grade: 80/100, , course: Tropical Medicine, Surveillance and Immunization, language: English, abstract: Ancient Greeks had two gods of health: Aesculapius and Hygieia, therapy and prevention, respectively. Medicine in the twentieth century retains those two concepts, and vaccination is a powerful means of prevention. Vaccines provide the immunity that comes from natural infection without the consequences of natural infection; help protect people from harmful infections before they come in contact with the disease. All vaccines are thermo-sensitive and need to be properly stored and distributed. The success of an immunization program depends on a system that ensures that vaccines are not thermally damaged (by heat or freezing) during transport and storage. The system or network that ensures vaccines are transported and stored at and within the recommended temperature range of +2oC to +8oC from the place of their manufacture to the point of vaccine administration is called the “cold chain”. The cold chain plays a crucial role in maintaining the potency and efficacy of vaccines throughout the immunization process and must therefore never be broken. This paper investigates aspects of cold chain management, such as temperature monitoring and cold chain system logistics.

Main challenges faced by local health managers in times of economic crisis

By: Bruce Wembulua Shinga

Scientific Essay from the year 2016 in the subject Health - Public Health, grade: 27/30, UniNettuno University, language: English, abstract: This paper deals with challenges faced by local health managers in times of economic crisis, since almost nothing in our modern healthcare system is preserved from both immediate and long term effects of economic oscillations. The healthcare becomes more and more subject to higher technologies with a growing number of private, well organized and benefit-oriented hospitals. Researchers found that approximately 50% of health improvements were due to access to better technology, whereas remaining gains resulted from income improvements and better education. Healthcare is actually referenced to as one of the most complex, costly and challenged sector of our contemporary societies. Just as health conditions at any time improve with income level, so too, might adverse income shocks have detrimental effects on health. Economic downturns have been linked to increased morbidity and mortality, and to poor nutrition and mental health. The recent economic crisis through the increasing socioeconomic disparities and difficulties such as unemployment, extreme poverty, homelessness, stigma, discrimination and social isolation and through the budgetary constraints and poor policies for financing prevention and treatment, have been translated to heightened risk behaviors on the individual level and impaired public health response on the population level. The negative impacts can also be observed at the societal level, as all sensitive social indicators have been distorted. In European countries, the late 2000's economic crisis laid to a consistent tendency of European governments to diminish the spending on healthcare. This have led to considerable decrease in the number of people accessing healthcare as in countries with weak health insurance policy people had to use money from their pocket. The economic crisis provokes certainly the need for multifactorial adjustments at all health managerial levels. To powerfully address this issue health managers should have clear understanding of the impacts of economic crisis on their ability to maintain and promote an adequate healthcare provision. The present paper will discuss indeed, the main challenges that a health services manager can face regarding the impact of an economic crisis to a local society.

Vaccines development and manufacturing process

By: Bruce Wembulua

Essay from the year 2016 in the subject Health - Public Health, grade: 80/100, , course: Tropical Medicine-Immuniwation and surveillance, language: English, abstract: This paper explains how vaccines are developed and describes in detail their manufacturing process The Greeks had two gods of health: Aesculapius and Hygieia, therapy and prevention, respectively. Medicine in the twentieth century retains those two concepts, and vaccination is a powerful means of prevention. Vaccines provide the immunity that comes from natural infection without the consequences of natural infection; help protect people from harmful infections before they come in contact with the disease. Vaccines may also help alleviate the symptoms of the infection caused by the virus.Vaccines provide the immunity that comes from natural infection without the consequences of natural infection. Vaccine development is difficult, complex, highly risky, and costly and includes clinical development, process development and assay development. Vaccine development requires strong management systems and controls, and requisite skill sets among scientists and engineers. Pharmaceutical companies must demonstrate the safety and efficacy of a medicinal product or vaccine through the use of clinical trials, before a regulatory authority registers the product. The vast majority of over one billion doses of vaccines manufactured worldwide each year are given to perfectly healthy individuals. It is this fact that drives the requirements for vaccines to be among the most rigorously designed, monitored and compliant products manufactured today.
