Given the overall system demands of reliability and sufficiency of resources, these designs should be compared to arrive at an optimal solution.
The first three are more capable of implementing QI methods given their sufficiency of resources and bed size.
We conducted surveys of quality managers and front-line clinicians (physicians and nurses) in 470 short-term, general hospitals to obtain data on hospitals' extent of HIT implementation, QI practices and strategies, assessments of quality performance, commitment to quality, and sufficiency of resources for QI.
Despite the 'sufficiency' of resource release potentially available from identified disinvestment options, participants in the Norfolk pilot were uncertain that any such options would actually be implemented.
The sufficiency of the resources for the demand relies on the efficiency of anaerobic digestion process and resulting increase in biogas yields.
Manageability concerns a generalised perception about the adequacy and sufficiency of coping resources available to the individual.
Important predictors of job satisfaction among commune health workers included age, areas of work and expertise, professional education, urban versus rural setting, and the sufficiency of human resources.
Staff knowledge regarding evidence-based practice is key, but also a number of contextual factors are highly influential for a well-functioning health care system, such as adequate geographical coverage of health care, sufficiency of material resources (e.g. equipment and drugs) and a certain level of activity (e.g. number of assisted deliveries) at the health care units.
It proposes three complementary principles [68, 69]: First, sufficiency requires a decrease of resource extraction from the environment "to limit the human scale to a level which, if not optimal, is at least within carrying capacity and therefore sustainable" [68].
PC- and referral-based practices did not differ on the sufficiency of their structural resources, physician staffing, or on the availability of specialty services.
