Road traffic injuries (RTIs) have been eighth leading cause of death in the world and second leading one Iran in 2018. Every year, a large number of motorcycle RTIs lead to deaths and disabilities due to non-compliance with traffic rules and the traditional design of the streets and routes in Dezful, Iran. This study aims to pursue two goals: identifying the legal and environmental factors affecting motorcycle RTIs, and prioritizing effective strategies in reducing number of motorcycle RTIs in Dezful, Iran.

A mixed method approach was used in this study. In the qualitative phase, focus group meetings using key informants were used to identify the effective factors and in the quantitative one a matrix was used for prioritizing effective strategies in preventing motorcycle RTIs.

45 basic codes related to legal factors and 8 basic codes of environmental factors were derived from the focus group meetings. Six main legal factors and 3 main environmental factors were prioritized as the most effective strategies to reduce motorcycle RTIs. The legal factors with the highest score were: making visible: obstacles, motorcycles and pedestrians and motorcyclists using colors and stickers or glossy stickers, further monitoring and training of riders’ license issuance schools, seriousness in enforcing the laws and dealing legally and seriously with violators, continuous marking of roads and streets, random check of motorcycleriders' license, and construction of public parking lots in crowded zones. The environmental ones were: identifying places where traffic signs are covered with trees, and reporting through the 137 call center, identifying and reporting shoulderless and hazardous roads by municipality, and Identifying and reporting accident-causing potholes through the 137 call center.

All organizations and stakeholders involved in reducing motorcycle RTIs, should take benefit from different recommendation -i.e. education & awareness, law enforcement and legal actions, environmental actions, collaborations, partnerships, and lobbying, and research.

Improving the quality of patientschr('39') safety is one of the priorities of hospitals and the WHO has prioritized it as one of the basic health concerns. The purpose of the present study was to investigate the impact of "Speak Up" program in strengthening the participation and safety of patients who referred to Babolsar hospitals.

This quasi-experimental interventional study which was performed from June to December 2017. The selected patients who referred to the clinic of Shafa hospital were divided into two groups: control and experimental (50 participants in each). A pre-test was given to both samples and then training was held for the intervention group through the educational brochure. A researcher-made questionnaire was used for collecting the data based on the "SPEAK UP brochure" (α= 0.925). Wilcoxon and Mann-Whitney tests was used for testing the research hypotheses were used through SPSS 20.

The mean scores of participation, safety, learning and asking skills in post-test of the experimental group were higher than that of  their pre-test scores. Implementation of the SPEAK UP program had a significant impact on participation, safety skills, learning skills and the asking skills of the patients who referred to the hospital.

Promoting the implementation of "SPEAK UP" program through using  7 educational rules has a significant impact on the free expression of opinions, and enhancing  the patientschr('39') participation level  and improving the safety  of patients  who referred to hospitals and other health centers.

Particular attention to the correct and timely decision and the prompt execution of that decision on assigned missions have a special status and credibility that must be taken into account so that taking the management issues, particularly the principles and foundations of decision making, into considerations is of particular relevance. Therefore, Law enforcement should take appropriate measures along with law enforcement crime prevention by properly understanding, recognizing, and making decisions, and to timely implement their dimensions and indicators in society. The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of decision-making dimensions on law enforcement crime prevention (Case study: the executive managers of the Second Chancellery of Metropolitan Tehran).

This study is of an applied research type that has been conducted using qualitative method. After collecting the primary information, the data were collected through documentary, library and field study using a questionnaire. The statistical population of the study consisted of 42 professors and executives, including 30 professors of department of Law Enforcement Crime Prevention and 12 other Chancellor Chiefs of Tehran Metropolitan Police Command. The complete sampling method was employed due to the availability and limitations of participants.

According to the regression equation and standard coefficient, the data normality is retained. One-sample t-test with significance level of less than 0.05 and with 95% confidence showed that there was a positive significant relationship between the dimensions of decision making and law enforcement crime prevention. The findings show that the highest impact is related to the identification and recognition of the problem variable in law enforcement crime prevention.

The results show that the most influential aspects of decision making are related to the variables of problem identification, problem design, solution design, selection of solutions, and evaluation of solutions on police crime prevention decision making. That is, by upgrading one unit of the variables of the model to problem identification and recognition variable (0.248 units), designing solutions (0.220 units), selecting solutions (0.230 units) and evaluating solutions (0.210 units), respectively, they will have an impact on decision-making in law enforcement crime prevention.

Development of Complementary Health Insurance (CHI) benefit packages has always been one of the main challenges of Health Insurance Organizations in Iran. Records related to developing a health insurance package in Iran show that there is no specific criterion for developing such packages.  This study aimed at developing criteria for providing CHI benefit packages presented by the Medical Service Insurance Organization in Iran.

The current research is a qualitative and applied research which has been conducted in 2014. The sample size included 24 authorities in the domain of CHI, and a semi-structured interview was used for collecting data. Data analysis was based on framework method applying Atlas-Ti 5.2 software.

Nineteen main themes and 53 sub-themes and finally 20 criteria were identified for four main dimensions of the benefit package including the insured, commitments of insurance services, financial resources and Medical Service Insurance Organization special priorities.

In this study, various criteria were identified for developing CHI. It seems that applying important criteria such as equity, clinical guidelines, effectiveness, and efficiency of CHI benefit package presented by Medical Service Insurance Organization can decrease the shortcomings of the current system and using standardization can lead to targeting the service benefit package, removing its defects and improving the health of insured people.
