| description | BACKGROUND:
Considering the significance of hospitals in the healthcare system and the challenges arising from future trends, this study was conducted to explore the role and functions of the future Amiralmomenin Hospital, Tehran Medical Unit, Islamic Azad University.
MATERIALS AND METHODS:
This qualitative content analysis study was conducted in 2022. The research population included senior managers and healthcare professionals, hospital directors and managers, IT specialists, advanced medical equipment experts, and faculty members of medical sciences universities. Sampling was purposeful, and semi-structured interviews were conducted with 19 individuals until data saturation was established. The MAXQDA 11 software was used for coding and data management.
RESULTS:
Two main themes were synthesized. (1) Future role and functions of the hospital, which included 10 subthemes: future healthcare services, education, research, financing, human resources, information management, drugs and medical equipment, physical resources, interdepartmental collaboration, and management and leadership. (2) Challenges and threats, categorized into six subthemes: education, financing, human resources, information management, drugs and medical equipment, and physical resources.
CONCLUSION:
The new collaborative and health promotion role was recommended for the future of Amiralmomenin Hospital. The following functions and actions in the hospital must be improved for the coming role: stakeholder commitments, changing human resources recruitment and competencies development, new financial policies and payment systems, updating information systems, up-to-date medical devices, improving intersectoral collaboration and community involvement, and strengthening the hospital’s interaction to primary care providers, research and developments centers. |
