O diálogo entre culto e cultura: possibilidades para um culto com rosto brasileiro
Authors: Adam Julio Cezar
Published: February 2019

Este artigo surgiu de uma necessidade de refletir sobre um tema antigo, mas ainda pouco levado a efeito na prática litúrgica no contexto brasileiro. Pretende-se, portanto, refletir aqui sobre a inculturação litúrgica no contexto brasileiro, em especial a partir de uma igreja protestante histórica, com o objetivo de propor pistas para um culto que reflita a cultura e o contexto brasileiro, permitindo que o culto cristão seja não só um evento de celebração da vida, mas também de transformação e dignificação da vida, em especial daquelas pessoas que se encontram em situação de vulnerabilidade. O artigo é resultado de um processo de revisão bibliográfica sobre inculturação litúrgica no âmbito evangélico-luterano, mas também católico, da década de 90 (séc. XX), bem como da reflexão sobre o contexto cultural e sócio-político, a reflexão litúrgica em torno à Teologia da Libertação, como base para apontar pistas para uma prática litúrgica inculturada. O artigo está assim organizado: 1) Aporte teórico para pensar a inculturação; 2) Aspectos da cultura brasileira; 3) Realidade do culto no contexto investigado; e 4) Pistas para um culto inculturado, um culto com um rosto brasileiro. Os principais resultados desse estudo é mostrar a relação da incuturação com o contexto social, a relação com os espaços e lugares da vida concreta, com o tempo e a memória e o papel subversivo da festa. A partir desses eixos, parece ser possível não só celebrar o culto, mas em diálogo crítico com a cultura, transformar contextos.
A cegueira elegante: Mino Bergamo intérprete de Fénelon
Authors: Duarte Alexandre Freire
Published: February 2019

No início da década de noventa do século XX, Mino Bergamo elaborou um conjunto de análises, elegantes mas desajustadas, acerca do pensamento de François Fénelon a respeito da estrutura da alma humana e do modo como, por esta, o ser humano se une a Deus. Este presente estudo, desejando ser uma correção dessas ponderações, começa pela apresentação do pensamento de Fénelon acerca da alma humana, entrando, em seguida, na ponderação do quê de verdadeiramente, este maior escritor do “pur amour” aduz acerca daqueles temas.
Da escala do planejamento urbano ao cuidado da casa comum: uma agenda submersa da injustiça ambiental
Authors: Amorim Fernando De Oliveira , Xavier Donizete José
Published: February 2019

Crescimento demográfico, mobilidade social impulsionada pelo êxodo rural e acelerado processo de urbanização transformam o meio físico e social das cidades brasileiras. Planos e processos de intervenções urbanas no contexto destas transformações são permeados por relações entre diferentes grupos que atuam nas políticas públicas. Com interesses próprios, estes grupos influenciam o padrão de uso do espaço urbano ao dosar recursos financeiros disponíveis e ao direcionar ações do Estado na alocação espacial de meios de consumo coletivo e de infraestrutura para diferentes segmentos da sociedade. Assim, direcionam onde e como são investidos os recursos públicos, gerando diferentes acessos a diferentes serviços para diferentes pessoas, concretizando desigualdade socioespacial. Este contexto socioeconômico que marca há muito as relações entre Estado e capital imobiliário no Brasil é interpretado como justificativa material e histórica ao compreender como se desenvolve a promoção, ou não, de infraestrutura urbana em assentamentos precários em área de proteção ambiental e de mananciais. Neste contexto, como preconiza a “Carta Encíclica Laudato Si: sobre o cuidado da casa comum” é necessário repensar a relação entre cidade e natureza considerando a questão ambiental urbana como conceito e prática de proteção do meio ambiente num processo de acelerada degradação socioambiental.
O discipulado segundo Mateus. Uma abordagem pragmática-comunicativa
Authors: Lopes Jean Richard , Ulloa Boris Agustín Nef
Published: February 2019

Propõe-se um estudo do tema do discipulado, a partir dos relatos vocacionais, presentes no Evangelho segundo Mateus (4,18-22; 8,18-22; 9,9.10-13; 19,16-22). O trabalho, de metodologia sincrônica, segue uma perspectiva comunicativa. Elaborado de forma a estimular a cooperação interpretativa, o evangelho não se limita a informar um acontecimento do passado, mas oferece vários elementos que tendem a provocar o leitor e a levá-lo a uma atitude que surge da verificação das suas posições e expectativas, em confronto com a narrativa. O objetivo do artigo é de identificar as estratégias literárias e pragmáticas usadas pelo autor. Inicia-se da descrição do gênero relato vocacional, com a comparação entre 1Rs 19,19-21 e Mt 4,18-20. Depois segue-se uma análise dos relatos, de modo a identificar os elementos de coesão e coerência interna de cada um deles, destacando o seu potencial comunicativo. Por fim, com a focalização pragmática, observa-se a distribuição progressiva dos relatos, no conjunto da narrativa, de modo a identificar a sua dimensão performativa, ou seja, o itinerário traçado pelo autor implícito, com a finalidade de conduzir o leitor a assumir os valores e a proposta de discipulado de Jesus Cristo, na ótica do Reino dos Céus.

Presented in this paper is an outcome of a study to assess the effect of section loss in the form of longitudinal notches on the buckling load of hollow square section steel columns. The theoretical study includes buckling load estimates based on both an iterative equilibrium as well as a non-iterative energy approach. Buckling loads based on sample laboratory experiments are also presented. The study shows that the presence of a notch can significantly reduce the axial load-carrying capacity of a steel column.
Reduction of Crude Oil Production Cost in Nigerian Indigenous Company using Activity Based Costing
Authors: Osetoba Segun Adebisi , Barinyima Nkoi , Amadi Rex
Published: February 2019

The aim of this study is to investigate the impact of activity based costing in reducing crude oil production cost in Nigerian indigenous oil and gas company. This research work identified strategies to effectively reduce the cost of crude oil production by adopting a cost reduction tool for crude oil production and to establish a good crude oil flow to the surface for production. Activity based costing was the cost reduction tool used for this work. The tool helps to differentiate between value added costing and non-value added costing. Non-value added costs must be reduced or eliminated during production so as to maximise profit. Data was collected from an indigenous oil service company. The collated data were tabulated and graphs were plotted with the aid of Microsoft excel. The analysis revealed a total sum of ₦ 416,978,977 was wrongly spent for a duration of three years on crude oil production due to non-value added costing. The activities are: poor transportation of crude oil, that is, use of mobile tanker for haulage instead of laying 4 inches coated pipes for a distance of 5km and contracting the treatment of produced water to a contractor instead of setting up a water treatment plant. Also, using a diesel engine generator for electric power supply while gas was available as a fuel gas for natural gas consuming generator was a non-value added activity. Lastly, inadequate oil well flowing practice by flowing the well through an adjustable choke for a long period of time instead of using a fixed choke. This is a huge loss for indigenous oil producing fields operated by an indigenous oil service company in Nigeria. The loss was due to inability of the producers/field location owners to set up few equipment to meet up with complete operation standard.

Published: February 2019

Tanneries use much of chemicals such as sodium sulphide ,calcium hydroxide, ammonium sulphate, acids, basic chromium sulphate bactericide and fungicide. All these substances contribute to the environment pollution, although biological and chemical treatment methods are required, but still these methods are not effective enough to reduce pollution to the international standard level required. This pollution problem has to be solved completely via recycling through all wet processes from soaking to retannage.In this study the spent solutions were recycled for soaking, deliming and retannage processes many times with addition of makeup of chemicals and water ,that normally used , The produced crust quality was tested and the results were found to be satisfactory.
Comparative Analysis on Economic Viability of Independent Power Producing System in Nigeria
Authors: Udoka Christopher , Nkoi Barinyima , Oparadike Felix E.
Published: February 2019

The aim of this research is to compare the economic benefits of various types of power generating technologies such as gas turbines, wind turbines and solar energy that is suitable for power producing plants in Nigeria. The study conducts economic assessment by developing a data-intensive spread-sheet-based model. The model estimates the unit cost of electricity generated by a 10MW capacity solar photovoltaic system (PV), Wind turbine and Gas Turbine. Comparison based on investment cost and capacity charge indicated that the levelized cost of electricity (LCOEsolar) by solar PV was found to be $0.05188 per kWh with a net present value of (-$3,520,003), (LCOEwind), by Wind turbine was found to be $0.0732per kWh or with a net present cost of (-$24,486,076), while (LCOEgas) by Gas turbine was found to be $10.07214 per kWh or with a net present value of ($11,813,136). Results obtained with reference to LCOE showed that solar PV has the lowest cost of power generation, followed by gas turbine, and then wind turbine. Consequently, comparison based on decision for economic and preferable energy to invest in as well as the annual return the investment is projected to generate indicated that the internal rate of return (IRR) for both solar PV and wind turbine was found to be negative with a simple payback period of 14 and 35 years respectively, while internal rate of return (IRR) for gas turbine was found to be 18.67% with 5 years payback period. Hence, result obtained with reference to IRR and SPBP showed that gas turbine is the most economic and preferable energy generating technology to invest in since it is projected to generate 18.67% annual return from the investment in a minimum of 5 years period as compared to solar PV and wind turbine. Although natural gas-based power generation has lower upfront costs but it is vulnerable to volatile fuel prices, whereas electricity generation from renewables has higher upfront costs but provides electricity at costs that are highly predictable.

Equitable Care for Indigenous People: every health service can do it
Authors: Dwyer Judith , O'Donnell Kim , Willis Eileen , Kelly Janet
Published: February 2019

Problem and its context: Indigenous peoples in many countries suffer poorer health and poorer access to good healthcare than their non-Indigenous counterparts. In Australia, enduring barriers to good health and good healthcare remain, in spite of long-standing policy priorities. These barriers include the ongoing reality of colonisation, and silence about its implications. People working in and using the health system need to relate across cultures, but they approach this endeavour witha complex mixture of goodwill, defensiveness, guilt and anxiety.

Methods: We analysed what is known in Australia about differentials in access to good care, and the underlying factors that entrench them, as well as strategies for developing mainstream competence in care for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander patients and communities.

Analysis and Conclusions: The available evidence of differentials in access and quality that are not explained by clinical or demographic variables is unequivocal. Official policy needs to be implemented at the system and organisation level through operational policies, programs and protocols, and through relationships with Aboriginal healthcare providers and community organisations. The concept of racism anxiety provides a way of making one important barrier visible, and moving beyond it can enable people of goodwill to ‘see’ where change is needed, and to see themselves as part of the solution. It is time to get beyond the barriers and attend to practical improvements in care, focused on the care system, not simply on the skills and knowledge of individuals within it.

Towards More Meaningful Measures in Healthcare
Authors: Leeder Stephen , Russell Lesley , Beaton Angela
Published: February 2019

Most health systems continue to be restructured and modified without much thought to underlying public policy. Patient safety, quality and innovation are monitored through a range of agencies while performance measures are regularly measured and the results published. Primary healthcare in many systems remains fragmented. To achieve value of the whole health system as well as its component parts, the development of an outcomes-based approach to performance measurement is required to guide the delivery of constantly improving health services. This is a critical issue in health systems management.

Federalism and Australia’s National Health and Health Insurance System
Authors: Podger Andrew
Published: February 2019

While health reform in Australia has been marked by piecemeal, incremental changes, the overall trend to increasing Commonwealth involvement has not been accidental or driven by power-hungry centralists: it has been shaped by broader national and international developments including technological change and the maturing of our nation and its place internationally, and by a widespread desire for a national universal health insurance system. In many respects the Australianhealth system performs well, but the emerging challenges demand a more integrated, patient-oriented system. This is likely to require a further shift towards the Commonwealth in terms of financial responsibility, as the national insurer. But it also requires close cooperation with the States, who could play a firmer role in service delivery and in supporting regional planning and coordination. The likelihood of sharing overall responsibility for the health system also suggests thereis a need to involve the States more fully in processes for setting national policies.

This article draws heavily on a lecture presented at the Australian National University in October 2015. It includes an overview of Australia’s evolving federal arrangements and the context within which the current Federalism Review is being conducted. It suggests Australia will not return to ‘coordinate federalism’ with clearly distinct responsibilities, and that greater priority should be given to improving how we manage shared responsibilities.

There is a long history of Commonwealth involvement in health, and future reform should build on that rather than try to reverse direction. While critical of the proposals from the Commission of Audit and in the 2014 Budget, the lecture welcomed the more pragmatic approaches that seemed to be emerging from the Federalism Review discussion papers and contributions from some Premiers which could promote more sensible measures to improve both the effectiveness and the financial sustainability of Australia’s health and health insurance system.

The Commonwealth’s new political leadership in 2015 seemed interested in such measures and in moving away from the Abbott Government’s approach. But the legacy of that approach severely damaged the Turnbull Government in the 2016 federal election as it gave traction to Labor’s ‘Mediscare’ campaign. In addition to resetting the federalism debate as it affects health, the Turnbull Government now needs to articulate the principles of Medicare and to clarify the role of the private sector, including private health insurance, in Australia’s universal health insurance system. Labor also needs to address more honestly the role of the private sector and develop a more coherent policy itself.

Launching Hong Kong’s Healthcare Financing Reform: why continued inaction? 87
Authors: Lieu Geoffrey
Published: February 2019

Hong Kong has sought without progress in the past 25 years to introduce reform proposals to enhance the long-term financial sustainability of its healthcare system. Through a systematic review of the consultation documents released over the years, this paper examines what might have been done right or wrong and pinpoints lessons learned for healthcare leaders, executives and reformers facing looming opportunities for reform. The findings suggest that the phased-approach of introducing reform options, involving step-by-step public consultations, to engaging the community to give their views on the healthcare financing reform options has not been effective. Other factors, including changes in the stewardship of the reform initiatives and the top-down elitist-led preparations of pre-launch work, added to the resultant inaction of not taking any of the reform proposals forward for launch and to produce reform. The study proposes that a broadly participatory approach, involving a wider base of members of the community in an inclusive guiding coalition charged to drive the reform from prelaunch to implementation, be undertaken. This coalition should start afresh and, based on renewed evidencebased assessments of the need and urgency of reform, proceed accordingly to formulate, if indicated, an overarching healthcare financing reform agenda that motivates people with conflicting interests to take mutually beneficial actions or that gives stakeholders the right incentives to work effectively together.
Influence of Politics on Accountability of Health Professionals in Bangladesh: An Analysis of the Quality of Health Service Delivery
Authors: Islam Mohammad Shafiqul
Published: February 2019

This study explored the role and responsibility of elected officials including political actors and addressed the factors of politics, decentralisation, bureaucratic management, and political commitment to understanding accountability in health service delivery. This study used qualitative case studies for which a total of 68 in-depth interviews and five focus group discussions were conducted in two areas of rural and urban Bangladesh. The findings show that political actors have poor commitment to improving accountability and healthcare delivery. The elected officials are not interested in organising regular meetings and they are even reluctant to organise a health service committee to make health officials accountable. The opposition political parties have no participation in health service organisations as the existing political culture does not allow it. Moreover, elected officials have a limited administrative authority because of an inadequate decentralised health system that leads to poor accountability and inadequate healthcare delivery. Further, bureaucrats want to capture power and are unwilling to decentralise the health system. The policy recommendation includes the decentralisation of healthcare provision and increased participation of elected representatives in a decentralised system.

Building a Culture of Health
Authors: Briggs David
Published: February 2019

Commentary and published research on the value of healthcare has become more evident in recent times. There has been a noticeable shift from the focus on efficiency of health systems and practice to a greater focus on what effectively works, or more so, what doesn’t work. Health delivery systems struggle with increased demand on existing services and other health priorities remain underserviced. What do we need to do to better examine and understand what delivers value to people, communities, the health system and at the same time improves health outcomes? ........
Remaking Practices in the Redesign of a Primary Healthcare Program
Authors: Rule John , Dunston Roger , Solomon Nicky
Published: February 2019

Objective: To develop a detailed account of changed practices in everyday work in the redesign of a primary healthcare program.

Design: The research aimed to produce layered and rich descriptions of the complex and multidimensional remaking of health practices. Empirical data was gathered through ethnographic methods including; interviewing, self-reporting, observation and shadowing. The subjects of the research were involved as active participants in the research design, data gathering and analysis.

Setting: HealthOne was a New South Wales government attempt to provide a local and responsive model to improve chronic disease management in primary and community healthcare settings. We report specifically on the HealthOne program implemented in a suburb of Western Sydney.

Main outcome measures: The research did not aim to evaluate the program but to uncover instances of professional learning though identifying changes in professional practice. These were noted and observed by the researchers and research participants or through reflexive conversations with the program planners, healthcare workers and the research team.

Results: Drawing on the work of a number of learning and practice-based theory writers, particularly those using a socio-material approach, we describe how practice change has occurred and how work practiceshave been remade at this site - especially in the role of the General Practice Liaison Nurse (GPLN).

Conclusions: The research demonstrated the potential for new categories and practices of health work to emerge; this was especially seen in the work of the GPLN but also extended to new ways of working through General Practitioners and community health networks.

Abbreviations: GP – General Practitioner; GPLN – General Practice Liaison Nurse.
Attracting Future Health Workforces in Geographically Remote Regions: perspectives from current remote health professionals
Authors: Onnis Leighanne
Published: February 2019

Objective: The aim of this study was to identify what has previously attracted health professionals to work in geographically remote regions, to identify the incentives that managers are currently using to attract health professionals to remote regions, and to determine whether they are comparable.

Design: This article examines the data from two separate, yet complementary, research studies. The first study used qualitative methods to investigate why health professionals choose to work in geographically remote regions through current remote health workforces. The second study investigated whether information communicated through recruitment advertising contained information congruent with the themes that attracted the current remote health professionals through a content analysis of recruitment advertisements. The findings from these two studies are then compared and contrasted and Psychological Contract Theory is used to examine the implications for health service managers.

Setting: This study was conducted in northern Australia, a remote tropical setting with geographically challenging working conditions.

Results: The findings revealed that recruitment advertisements contained information comparable with the themes that had attracted health professionals to work in remote regions. Most importantly, they highlight opportunities to better align recruitment practices, and provide insight into how unrealistic expectations lead to psychological contract breaches.

Conclusions: This study found that while recruitment advertisements are using appropriate content to attract health professionals to remote regions, there is considerable scope for improvement so that attraction translates into improved retention.

Assessing the Competence of Evidence-Informed Decision-Making Amongst Health Service Managers
Authors: Liang Zhangming , Howard Peter , Wollersheim Dennis
Published: February 2019

Objective: Evidence-informed decision-making (EIDM) amongst health service managers has been positively linked to better decision outcome, hence more effective healthcare provision. Efforts to improve EIDM practice are required to meet the current challenging healthcare environment. One key step to improve such practices is skill enhancement. The purpose of the study is the measure the competence of mid-level managers in two Victorian hospitals in applying EIDM in their roles.

Design: The competence of 25 mid-level managers in applying EIDM in their roles was assessed via a 360° process using an online management competency assessment tool (MCAP Tool) and case-study objective assessment tool.

Setting: Mid-level managers working in Victorian hospitals were selected.

Main outcome measures: The competence of mid-level managers in applying the competency of EIDM was assessed. This paper discusses the areas of improvement identified in enhancing the competence of EIDM amongst mid-level managers in the group, organisational and individual levels Results: EIDM is an important competency for health service managers. Managers who participated in the assessment are competent in applying EIDM in their roles, but require guidance and improvements. Strengths and weaknesses of managers in applying EIDM in their roles varied between organisations.

Conclusion: This paper suggests that not only improvement of specific aspects of evidenceinformed decision-making amongst health service managers are required, additional more systematic changes at the organisational and individual management level are essential to achieve competent evidence-informed decision-making practices amongst health service managers.

Healthcare Workforce in Indonesia
Authors: Suryanto Suryanto , Boyle Malcolm , Plummer Virginia
Published: February 2019

Introduction: Imbalanced distribution of healthcare providers between urban and rural areas is one of the difficulties facing health service provision in Indonesia. Several regulations have been made by the governmentto solve the problem. The objective of this paper is to describe the provision of human resources for healthcare services in Indonesia.

Methodology: A review of medical related electronic databases, CINAHL and Ovid MEDLINE, was undertaken from their commencement date until the end of January 2017. The grey literature from the Indonesian government, the World Health Organisation and the World Bank websites was also searched.

Results: There were 92 articles identified from the CINAHL and 222 articles from the Ovid MEDLINE databases. Five articles were included from the two databases and five documents from grey literature with ten articles to be reviewed. 

Discussion: Nurses and midwives account for the largest proportion of healthcare providers in Indonesia. The ratio of healthcare providers in Indonesia is lower than the average of South-East Asian and other lower middle income countries. More than half of the healthcare providers in Indonesia provide care in community health centres. Several regulations have been proclaimed to improve the imbalanced proportion of healthcare providers across the country.

Conclusion: Indonesia continues to develop strategies towards successful distribution of healthcare providers across the country. A study investigating the impact of the programs reducing the imbalanced distribution of healthcare providers on health outcomes is essential for Indonesia.
Beyond the Numbers: on the road to achieving public value in community support organisations
Authors: Girkin Fiona , Shannon Elizabeth , Zimitat Craig , Elliot Kate-Ellen
Published: February 2019

Objective: To explore public value as a management tool for measuring outcomes, in Community Support Organisations (CSOs) and determine if further research is warranted.

Design: A literature review on public value and outcome measurement in the community service sector was conducted to evaluate how public value best fits with CSOs.

Setting: Public value has not previously been applied to measuring outcomes in CSOs and could provide beneficial information to assist in obtaining government funding as fiscal resources decline.

Main outcome measures: The following question was considered; Can a public value framework be used as a management tool by CSOs to measure the value of their service? A flow chart applying a public value framework to outcome measurement of CSOs was developed.

Results: Key elements identified were indicators, measures and outcomes. Stakeholders included; government, community sector, CSOs and consumer. A public value framework has the potential to be used for measuring outcomes in the community sector however realworld application is still required.

Conclusion: This study provided preliminary application for a larger study and has provided evidence of a public value framework having the potential to be applied as an outcome measurement tool for CSOs.

Organisational Climate for Change and Innovativeness
Authors: Black Helen
Published: February 2019

Purpose: Acute health services around the world are increasingly required to respond to accreditation institutes, the changing needs and expectations of patients and societal values that demand continuous improvement in quality and efficiencies. Many change initiatives and innovative attempts have failed or resulted in lower performance than expected. The purpose of this paper is to increase understanding of the organisational contextual factors such as social capital and organisational climate that interact with the change implementation processes and provide a new perspective for change management in the unique environment of acute health care.

Methodology: This mixed methods study was executed in three different sized operating theatre suites. A survey and in-depth interviews were used to reveal a current organisational climate for innovativeness through team member perspectives.  The strength of each organisational climate was assessed with reference to the level of disparity in the participant responses. In-depth interviews and observations provided understanding of how social capital is developed and maintained, then examined in context with the climate for innovativeness to understand how contextual factors, social capital and climate interact. 

Findings: It has been demonstrated that social capital in the operating theatre suite has bearing on the organisational climate for change and innovativeness. Size and structure of an organisation influence how social networks develop; policies and management practices influence how different networks interact; and, the combination of contextual factors and social capital influences the organisational climate for innovativeness. 

Originality/value: Managing social capital can offer a people-focused perspective through which to design and implement change and enhance an organisational climate for innovativeness.

Dental Emergency Attendance at an Australia Tertiary Children’s Hospital
Authors: Aminian Parmis , Kruger Estie , Winters John , Nicholls Wendy , Tennant Marc
Published: February 2019

Objective: Dental emergencies are a significant impact on the health system.  The resource needs are complex and consume services in the tertiary health sector.  It is important that we examine the reasons and types of attendances to look for ways to mitigate this demand. The aim was to identify the rate of dental emergencies according to age groups, genders and Indigenous status.Design: A retrospective analysis of dental emergencies at the Princess Margaret Hospital (PMH; tertiary children hospital in Perth) was performed. Setting: The study included data from hard-copy files of patients admitted to the PMH.Main outcome measures: The records of 239 children who attended the PMH in Perth with dental emergency problems during the first 3 months of 2017 were analyzed. Findings: The major reasons for dental emergencies were infection and trauma. The most common age group was children between 3 to 6 years old. In this age group, boys attended more than girls due to dental injury. Although there were equal presentations of dental infection and dental trauma cases, dental infection cases mostly required hospitalization and treatment under general anesthetic.  Conclusion: While some dental emergencies are unavoidable, increasing awareness about dental hygiene, regular checkups and early dental treatments in children could decrease emergency visits and prevent conditions such as dental infections

Managers of Health Services in Australia 2006-2016
Authors: Martins Jo M , Isouard Godfrey
Published: February 2019

Purpose: Activity in health services is expanding faster than population growth and that of the production of all goods and services in Australia. This paper is concerned with the number and characteristics of its managers in relation to the number of people employed and resources used. It also assesses different trends in hospitals and other medical and health services.

Methodology/Design: Design of the analyses follows specifications set by the authors for tabulations prepared by the Australian Bureau of Statistics (ABS) from the censuses of population conducted by ABS in 2006 and 2016.

Analysis: Assesses changes in the number and variations in the characteristics of managers of hospitals and medical and other health services, in relation to the number of people employed, contrasted with changes in all industries.

Findings: There are different trends in hospitals and medical and other health services, with a decline in the number of employees per manager in medical and other health services and a slight rise in hospitals. The older average age of health service managers continued to rise, similarly to that for all industries. The proportion of female managers in health services, below the average for all employees, increased somewhat during the decade. The distribution among the various fields of study remained about the same; but level of education, higher than the average for all industries continued to rise.The growth in average income of managers during the decade was somewhat lower than in all industries, due to a lower increase rate in medical and other health services. The proportion of managers of indigenous status rose substantially – almost double the proportion in all industries.

Implications: The findings are of relevance to those concerned with the management of health services and training of the growing number of managers of health services in Australia.
