EMERGENCY
Hospital, an institution that is built, staffed, and equipped for the diagnosis of disease; for the treatment, both medical and surgical, of the sick and the injured; and for their housing during this process. The modern hospital also often serves as a centre for investigation and for teaching.
To better serve the wide-ranging needs of the community, the modern hospital has often developed outpatient facilities, as well as emergency, psychiatric, and rehabilitation services. In addition, “bedless hospitals” provide strictly ambulatory (outpatient) care and day surgery. Patients arrive at the facility for short appointments. They may also stay for treatment in surgical or medical units for part of a day or for a full day, after which they are discharged for follow-up by a primary care health provider.
Hospitals have long existed in most countries. Developing countries, which contain a large proportion of the world’s population, generally do not have enough hospitals, equipment, and trained staff to handle the volume of persons who need care. Thus, people in these countries do not always receive the benefits of modern medicine, public health measures, or hospital care, and they generally have lower life expectancies.
In developed countries the hospital as an institution is complex, and it is made more so as modern technology increases the range of diagnostic capabilities and expands the possibilities for treatment. As a result of the greater range of services and the more-involved treatments and surgeries available, a more highly trained staff is required. A combination of medical research, engineering, and biotechnology has produced a vast array of new treatments and instrumentation, much of which requires specialized training and facilities for its use. Hospitals thus have become more expensive to operate, and health service managers are increasingly concerned with questions of quality, cost, effectiveness, and efficiency.

DIALYSIS
Dialysis is a procedure to remove waste products and excess fluid from the blood when the kidneys stop working properly. It often involves diverting blood to a machine to be cleaned.
Normally, the kidneys filter the blood, removing harmful waste products and excess fluid and turning these into urine to be passed out of the body.

Strategies of high-performing learning organiztions
So, what are the highest performing organizations doing to drive effective learning in the flow of work? Mallon identifies four strategies that separate the haves and have-nots in the maturity model.
1. Designed for growth
High performing organizations put their time and energy into two key areas: improving the performance of employees in their current role through in-the-moment learning, and they offer longer-term development paths. Organizations designed for growth also reward individuals who actively engage in their own growth. Learning and development professionals view learning from the employee’s perspective and focus on simplifying an employee’s work life, anticipating their needs, eliminating the barriers to learning and delivering experiences that are relevant, current and in the moment.
2. Support engineered exploration
High performing learning organizations create conditions that allow an individual to control their destiny and influence their future. Through process and decision-making clarity, they encourage greater risk-taking and exploration among employees.
3. Offer guided adaptation
High performing learning organizations invest time in making learning happen faster for the individual and for the organization so that they are leveraging that learning every day to accelerate performance, move faster, and adapt quicker.
4. Engage in accelerated evolution
At the highest maturity level, organizations evolve as a result of their learning, rapidly adjusting their mental frameworks and mindsets. These organizations encourage learning on the fly, quality conversations between a supervisor and employees and position risk as impactful and helpful.

Care delivery systems

Recent years have brought to national attention a troubling fact: the U.S. health care delivery system does not provide consistent, high-quality medical care to all people all of the time. Crossing the Quality Chasm: A New Health System for the 21st Century (2001) calls for a sweeping redesign of the entire delivery system. Modifying the current system cannot do the job, because its inherently poor design sets up health care workers to fail, regardless of how hard they try. The report presents a strategy and action plan for developing a system that ensures the delivery of care that is safe, effective, patient-centered, timely, efficient, and equitable over the next decade. It provides a set often general principles for improving how health professionals and their institutions care for patients. Among these rules, care should be customized according to patient needs and...
