MEASURES OF PRODUCTIVITY IN HEALTH FACILITIES
Productivity measures have been introduced in neonatal units to the number of children’s death in the hospitals. Key inputs in this unit are time, labor, capital, materials and resources utilized in delivering services to the young ones. Nurses and doctors should be punctual in feeding the babies, giving medication to them, changing their dirty clothes and ensuring that medical machines are not in default. Capital should be generated for machines and clothing. Key outputs are the falling number of infant deaths, reduced congestion in maternity wings, production of quality services and improvement of infant health. According to Ozcan (2009), appropriate resources should be matched with the care to be provided.
