| description | Introduction: The aim of this study is to examine the hospital manager’s job in order to identify their educational needs in Esfahan in 1382. To do so, first, we tried to become familiar with the current situation by using the experiences of hospital managers in Esfahan and then we made an attempt to determine the optimal situation by asking the views of management specialists. Finally, the two cases were compared to identify the educational needs of the managers. Materials and methods: The data were collected by using documents and hospital records. In addition, five management specialists, nine hospital managers and five head nurses were interviewed about the responsibilities and qualifications of a manger. The data were analyzed based on strubert ten-stage method. Results: The finings revealed that hospital managers did not have enough information about their responsibilities and what they knew in this regard was mainly acquired through experience. Furthermore, they lacked enough scientific and specialized knowledge and academic training about hospital management. Discussion: Managers need training about their responsibilities. Furthermore, the inputs, processes and consequences of their responsibilities must be defined clearly and accurately. At the end, a model was presented for revising the manager’s responsibilities. Key words: Needs assessment, job analysis, hospital manager. |
