Project Management for Healthcare

One way to make healthcare more efficient is to bring it into the discipline of project management. This book explores project management from the perspective of the healthcare environment. It is organized into three sections corresponding to the three major phases of a project: planning, executing, and controlling. Dissecting each phase, it examines the influences of healthcare on each phase. The planning section covers the tools and techniques required to successfully plan a project. The executing section explains how to use the project plan to achieve budget, schedule, and quality objectives. The control section covers project changes, milestones, and metrics.
