Book SynopsisAs new information and communication technologies (NICTs) increasingly reorganize our practices and influence our daily lives, there is a pressing need to study their impact in the field of hospital logistics and to question their future use. Hospital Logistics and e-Management presents an inventory of the health information system, and deals with informational and logistical issues with regard to medical information. Through two case studies of hospital logistics systems which have drawn on academic research, this book examines how powerful decision support tools can improve the quality of patient service and logistics organization. The first case study deals with the influx of patients to emergency services and service organization, and the second with the optimization of product collection and distribution flows.Table of ContentsPreface ix Chapter 1.

This book is intended for teachers of DNP and PhD programs in nursing and other disciplines, their students, and healthcare leaders who need to leverage data to demonstrate care quality and outcomes.Trade Review“This is a unique book, which can be used by students and novices. It can be useful for DNP students as they develop their end-of-program projects and for nurses as they begin to work on quality improvement and program evaluation projects. There is no comparable book in the field. This would be a great addition to the library of teachers and managers to share with their students and nurses.” (Michalene A.
