From the Paper:

"Having had an opportunity to review Brad Kirkman-Liff's article entitled "Keeping an Eye of a Moving Target: Quality Changes and Challenges for Nurses" (2002, November-December) that which impressed me most was the importance the author placed on the need for a sound operations management program within the healthcare environment. Although Kirkman-Liff does not label his analysis of quality healthcare as an operations management program, all the components listed (demographics, technology, financing, care management) are basic considerations in the delivery of healthcare services to the medical consumer.
