HELP HEALTHCARE INSTITUTIONS TO ADDRESS KEY CHALLENGES AND THRIVE
WHAT IS THIS TRACK?
Meet the case of Ayesha
Ayesha is the CEO of a major metropolitan hospital facing significant challenges. Over the past year, the hospital has seen a 20% increase in patient admissions, but staffing levels have not kept pace, leading to overworked staff, reduced morale, and an increase in medical errors. Additionally, the hospital struggles with financial constraints due to rising costs of medical supplies and the demand for high-quality patient care.
Recently, Ayesha was informed about an opportunity to participate in an EU-funded pilot program promising to revolutionize patient care through digital health solutions. However, the initial investment required is substantial, putting further strain on the hospital’s already tight budget.
What do you think?
- With limited financial resources, how can Ayesha ensure access to innovative solutions?
- How can the hospital balance the high costs of implementing digital health solutions with the need to maintain or improve other areas of patient care?
- How can Ayesha involve and gain support from hospital staff and stakeholders in the decision to participate in the pilot program?
- What measures can be taken to ensure the sustainability of the digital health solutions after the pilot program ends?
CAN YOU HELP?
As a healthcare leader, you face challenges similar to Ayesha’s. How would you attract and engage investors? How would you communicate with internal and external stakeholders about the effectiveness of promising digital innovations? What actions would you prioritize?
This track provides you with essential leadership skills for such situations, making you attractive to various organizations and allowing you to grow as a leader, employee, and researcher. If you’re passionate about positively influencing healthcare decisions and addressing key challenges in today’s healthcare systems, this track is for you!
