Infermieristica

Nel contesto di un'assistenza sanitaria sempre più diversificata e in costante cambiamento, gli infermieri sono in prima linea

Quale figura chiave all'interno delle organizzazioni sanitarie, il coordinatore è al centro dei processi di lavoro e vicino all'operatività quotidiana, si occupa dei progetti di innovazione e miglioramento, mantenendo contatti e relazioni di ordine gerarchico e funzionale con i vertici aziendali. È considerato uno snodo cruciale, non solo per le funzioni organizzative svolte, ma anche per l'attenzione che sempre più le direzioni aziendali gli rivolgono per la sua possibilità di essere leva di cambiamento, rappresentante operativo della politica aziendale e professionista capace di tradurre obiettivi e progetti in attività concrete. In una cornice di rinnovata complessità normativa e organizzativa, si muove la nuova edizione dell'opera, creata con l'idea di riproporre una riflessione sulla figura del coordinatore delle professioni sanitarie, con particolare riguardo alle responsabilità connesse al suo esercizio professionale. La responsabilità è il tema centrale e filo conduttore del libro che ha l'ambizione di fornire uno strumento di studio e consultazione che possa contribuire ad ampliare la riflessione sulle funzioni di coordinamento e orientare i professionisti nei dubbi dell'azione quotidiana.
