Svantaggi
I would reiterate what was said previously- management sucks. The system is based on cronyism, with promotion from within. There are way too many people who simply fill a job title and are either not qualified or lack serious vision, lack the intelligence and experience, and seem to be collecting a paycheck. Nobody can be removed from a management position barring an act of God. The mission statement is highly misleading, since roadblocks to providing excellent patient care are constantly put up by anyone at a management level. Too much passing the buck - nobody really makes a decision, it simply gets passed on to the next person, or corporate, or whomever. Corporate office makes decisions that affect patient care without really understanding what is going on in the facility. When you look at the "health system", why is it that there are not more health professionals (doctors and nurses) in management positions? It is all business people. That seems a strange way to run a medical business.
