The management concerns of hospital pharmacy directors.
In conclusion, this research shows that pharmacy directors in Chicago hospitals face problems on several fronts, though not all are of equal importance. Of particular interest is that, contrary to theoretical expectations, the directors do not consider problems involving relationships with other organizational actors to be extremely important. This issue (as well as others raised here) needs to be investigated in broader and deeper terms. The issue carries important implications, especially in a health care environment that should encourage innovation and negotiation among the professional members of provider organizations.
