  • More about Organising Care in a Time of Covid-19: Implications for Leadership, Governance and Policy

The COVID-19 pandemic has caused significant changes in the delivery of health and care services, leading to reorganization and innovation. This book explores the dynamics of policy-making, the organization and governance of care organizations, the role of technologies in governing, the changing role of professionals, and the possibilities for more resilient care systems.

The COVID-19 pandemic has brought about significant changes in the way health and care services are organized and delivered worldwide. Policymakers in many countries have been quick to respond to the surge in demand for COVID-19 care by re-purposing existing services and creating new 'field hospitals'. These strategies indicate profound shifts in the organization of both COVID-19 and non-COVID care, raising important questions about the long-term organization of care after the pandemic. In some contexts, the pandemic has highlighted the weaknesses and vulnerabilities of care systems, while in others, it has demonstrated how services can be structured to be more resilient and adaptable to unexpected pressures.

This pandemic presents a unique opportunity to empirically examine and develop new theoretical frameworks that explain how health systems adapt to such extraordinary and intense pressures. International contributors explore how responses to COVID-19 are transforming the organization and governance of health and care services and address issues related to strategic leadership at local, regional, national, and transnational levels. The book offers valuable insights and analysis on the dynamics of policymaking, the organization and governance of care organizations, the role of technologies in governing, the evolving role of professionals, and the potential for more resilient care systems.
