Resilienz von Gesundheitssystemen – Kernelemente und Zukunftsperspektiven
摘要
The resilience of healthcare systems describes their ability to respond to disruptive crises by coping, maintaining key services, and persevering. After the crisis, it is a sign of resilience to evaluate the lessons identified and initiate improvement processes based on these lessons, in order to emerge from the crisis with improved structures. The resilience of a healthcare system is largely supported by the pillars of staff, supplies, and space/infrastructure. These are embedded in an overarching set of rules consisting of a legal framework, strategic principles, and operational tools. It is crucial for the realization of resilience that the rules enable rather than hinder action and medical care. Reducing bureaucracy is of crucial importance here and can be put into practice in very concrete terms. Only if we succeed in significantly reducing the complexity of the healthcare system will we have a more resilient system that is capable of responding adequately to impending and already existing crises.
