Abstract:

Hospital employees who work in an environment with zero tolerance to error, face several stressors that may result in psychological, physiological, and behavioural strains, and subsequently, in suboptimal performance. This thesis includes two studies which investigate the stressor-to-strain-to-performance relationships in hospitals. The first study is a cross-sectional, multi-group investigation based on secondary data from 65,142 respondents in 172 acute/specialist UK NHS trusts. This model proposes that senior management leadership predicts social support and job design which, in turn, moder

Abstract:

Hospitals are constantly evolving to keep pace with the latest medical technologies. Whether it is a refurbishment of an existing facility or the addition of a new unit, the design process usually focuses on the technological requirements rather than the human elements of such an undertaking. The Riley Hospital for Children in Indianapolis presents an architectural opportunity to incorporate psychology of the environment into the design and construction of a new Cancer Unit. By balancing the technological requirements with the physical and psychological needs of the pediatric bone marrow trans

Abstract:

Magister Curationis - MCur<br>Nursing unit managers from different generations of nurses are expected to manage their units effectively, in order to achieve the healthcare goals for their clients. Directing a unit can be affected by the generational differences among nursing unit managers. It has been stated that generational differences are associated with different perceptions on directing a nursing unit. However, in Namibia, no similar evidence exists to support this theory; therefore, a contextual understanding of the nursing unit managers’ perceptions was necessary to inform future measur

Abstract:

Background: Patients often present to the Emergency Department (ED) at the end of life. Caring for these patients present a unique set of challenges, and often the patients' and families' needs are at odds with the pervasive rescue-oriented ED culture. A potential solution to this problem is an Acute Palliative Care Unit. Groote Schuur Hospital opened such a unit in April 2011, managed by the ED staff. This kind of service was not available in this tertiary, academic state hospital prior to that. Objectives: This study aimed to evaluate aspects of care at the Groote Schuur Hospital Palliative

Abstract:

Exposure to noise in hospital intensive care units (ICUs) can disrupt patients’ sleep and delay their recovery. In this intervention study, noise levels were measured in eight patient rooms of a medical ICU (MICU) every minute with sound level meters for eight weeks before and after an intervention. Implemented over six weeks, the intervention was designed to educate nurses and other staff members to reduce noise levels through behavior modification, including instituting a “quiet time” in the afternoons, encouraging patients to keep televisions off or at lower volumes, and speaking more quiet

Non-Q Myocardial Infarction (NQMI) is considered to be an unstable condition with increased risk of recurrent infarction. Thus aggressive approaches in management have been recommended.

To determine the experience at Groote Schuur Hospital all patients admitted to CCU from 1990 to 1993 with NQMI were analysed retrospectively especially with regard to management and outcome. One-hundred and eighty-one patients were admitted with NQMI. Seventy-eight percent (141) remained cardiovascularly sta
