Do So

Purpose Improving the performance of health care organizations is now perceived as essential in order to better address the needs of the populations and respect their ability to pay for the services. There is no consensus on what is performance. It is increasingly considered as the optimal execution of four functions that every organization must achieve in order to survive and develop: reach goals; adapt to its environment; produce goods or services and maintain values; and a satisfying organizational climate. There is also no consensus on strategies to improve this performance. The paper aims to discuss these issues. Design/methodology/approach This paper intends to analyze the performance of primary health care organizations from the perspective of Kauffman’s model. It mainly aims to understand the often contradictory, paradoxical and unexpected results that emerge from studies on this topic. Findings To do so, the first section briefly presents Kauffman’s model and lays forward its principal components. The second section presents three studies on the performance of primary organizations and brings out the contradictory, paradoxical and unexpected results they obtained. The third section explains these results in the light of Kauffman’s model. Originality/value Kauffman’s model helps give meaning to the results of researches on performance of primary health care organizations that were qualified as paradoxical or unexpected. The performance of primary health care organizations then cannot be understood by only taking into account the characteristics of these organizations. The complexity of the environments in which they operate must simultaneously be taken into account. This paper brings original development of an integrated view of the performance of organizations, their own characteristics and those of the local environment in which they operated.

Harmful Effects

Climate change has been described as the issue of our times. The World Health Organization argues that it will result in both beneficial and harmful effects for human populations and that the harms are likely to outweigh the benefits. Climate scientists can sketch an outline of the probable changes by country, and even region within a country. The effect of climate change on communities is much harder to predict. However, it can be argued with some confidence that the effects will be unequally distributed across communities and that the ways in which communities respond will make a substantial difference to their wellbeing. This paper uses the predictions for climate change in Victoria, Australia, as the background to a discussion of primary health care principles and how they might translate into coping, adaptation and mitigation activities within the primary health care sector. The major primary health care agencies are linked to one another through Primary Care Partnership structures and processes, which provide a foundation for sector-wide responses to climate change. The concept of a storyline, a brief scenario capturing the logic of changes and potential responses, is used to link evidence of climate change effects on communities and individuals to potential responses by primary health care agencies.

The aim of this study: To determine the trajectory of improving human resource management as an element of operational management in the organization of primary health care. Methods. Within the framework of the study, a comparative analysis of statistical data on the provision of PHC doctors by regions for 2017-2019 was carried out according to the information system of the Ministry of Health of the Republic of Kazakhstan «Additional component of the per capita standard». Results. When analyzing the provision of health care organizations with general practitioners, district pediatricians, district therapists at the level of primary health care (PHC) in the republic, a dynamic decrease in the quantitative indicator of doctors providing PHC was revealed. And also noted a stable tension in the workload of a doctor in terms of the number of served (attached) population. Conclusions. Staff-oriented approaches, such as calculating the required number of staff or creating formulas and algorithms, provide only partial solutions. More comprehensive solutions are needed that will focus on effective multifactor human resource management. For the most effective use of human resources, health care organizations must expand a systems approach that takes into account organizational and institutional conditions
