Evaluation of the Health Management Research Capabilities and Learning Needs of Hospital Management Personnel

Abstract

The new era puts forward higher requirements on the quality of hospital management personnel, so it is significant to improve their health management research capabilities and encourage them to solve practical difficulties through scientific research as well as make innovations to their management thinking. In this article, a questionnaire survey of 100 hospital management personnel was carried out in a tertiary hospital in Guangzhou, China, to identify their health management research capabilities and learning needs for related knowledge. The results showed that most of the interviewees were young and middle-aged women with relatively high academic qualifications, mainly in medical and management majors. Their scientific research knowledge base and learning needs are on the average, and their scientific research method foundation is relatively ideal. There are significant differences in scientific research knowledge base, scientific research training needs, and scientific research methods among those with different ages and educational levels (p<0.05).
