Abstract

Introduction: Evaluating agility effectively and efficiently is necessary and challenging for organizations. Therefore, this article aimed to assess the performance of hospitals with organizational agility (OA) approach. Materials and methods: A descriptive-analytical study was done in which the statistical population consisted of managers and experts of hospital courses including medicine, nursing, midwifery, and paramedics. A total of 283 managers and experts were enrolled as the sample using the Krejcie and Morgan table with stratified random sampling. Data were analyzed using one-sample t test with SPSS20. Results: Among 13 elements of agility, the results showed that competence (P=0.032) had a significant difference with customer satisfaction (P=0.029). The results also showed that OA was not optimal in selected hospitals of Mazandaran province, Iran. Concerning the indicators, introduction of new product (8.56) and staff skill development indicator (5.32) were maximum and minimum, respectively. Conclusion: The results showed that OA was not optimal in selected hospitals. Introduction of new product scored the top, while staff skill development was the lowest. As a result, health policy makers are recommended to plan for customer satisfaction, timely utilization of facilities, elimination of weak points, lost cost reduction, encouragement and punishment system for staff, and staff empowerment.

伊朗马赞德兰省选定医院的灵活性评估
引言:有效和高效地评估敏捷性对组织来说是必要的,也是具有挑战性的。因此,本文旨在采用组织敏捷性(OA)方法来评估医院的绩效。材料和方法:进行了一项描述性分析研究,统计人群由医院课程的管理人员和专家组成,包括医学、护理、助产和护理人员。共有283名管理人员和专家采用分层随机抽样的Krejie和Morgan表作为样本。数据采用SPSS20单样本t检验进行分析。结果:在敏捷性的13个要素中,能力(P=0.032)与客户满意度(P=0.029)存在显著差异。结果还表明,在伊朗马赞德兰省的选定医院中,OA不是最优的。关于指标,新产品引进率(8.56)和员工技能发展指标(5.32)分别为最高和最低。结论:结果表明,OA在选定的医院并不理想。新产品引进得分最高,员工技能发展得分最低。因此,建议卫生政策制定者为客户满意度、设施的及时利用、薄弱环节的消除、损失成本的降低、员工的激励和惩罚制度以及员工赋权制定计划。
