The present study aimed to examine the effect of talent management (talent attraction, talent retention, talent development) on the personal growth of employees (growth mindset, metacognition, and self-authorship) in private hospitals in Benghazi, Libya.

This descriptive-analytical study was conducted in July 2022 using a questionnaire that was specifically designed for this purpose and had 29 paragraphs on a five-point Likert scale. The studied population consisted of the upper and middle managers of 5 private hospitals in Benghazi. 255 employees were selected to form a stratified random sample from the studied population with a response rate of 90.16%. Regression analysis was used to evaluate the effect of the independent variable on the dependent variable.

A high level of application was observed for talent management, while the application of personal development was low. Also, the effect of talent management on individual growth was significant with β=0.720.

 Talent management practices affect positively employees’ personal growth in private hospitals in Benghazi, Libya.

Private hospital services (PHS) with the undeniable effects on the Universal Health Coverage (UHC) goals have a considerable contribution to the health system of developing countries. The purpose of this systematic scoping review (ScR) was to identify and map the available evidence regarding the developing countries to scrutinize the nature of the PHS toward UHC through providing graphical/ tabular information of the records trends and types, sources of the records, frequent settings, drivers of the PHS growth, range of the PHS, behaviors of the PHS, and opportunities for policy actions. This study was performed following the 2017 published methodological guidance of the Joanna Briggs Institute for the conduct of ScR. Furthermore, a narrative‑thematic synthesis integrated with the systematic analysis applying approach to health system strengthening (HSS) through systems thinking was employed. Thirty‑two included records in English that met the inclusion criteria were found between 2011 and July 2020. There has been a sharp increase in the generation of the records with a 90.6% growth rate between 2015 and 2020. The most frequent records types were review article, and the lancet was the most specialized journal. India was the most frequent country. Near half of the growth drivers of PHS have been originated from the governance. Besides, the range of PHS was identified only about Mongolia, and the significant frequency of codes of the PHS behaviors (32.6%) was related to integrated people‑centered health service delivery. 47.8% of the identified HSS interventions were recommended about governance. Governance plays a decisive role in the nature of the PHS in UHC. Concerning the dynamic architectures of interactions between health system functions, probably the countries themselves have realized the importance of the governance role in the HSS than other functions. Given the all of the recommended interventions were a combination of foundational and institutional, sustainable participation of PHS in the health system seems far and requires a solid will of the governments. Future research is needed about the range of PHS and its behaviors in terms of consumables, revenue‑raising, and pooling of funds.

There is a lack of conceptual clarity about the role of delivering private hospital services (DPHS) accompanied by major gaps in evidence. The purpose of this systematic scoping review was to identify and map the available evidence regarding the developing countries to scrutinize the participation of DPHS exclusively in the universal health coverage (UHC) through providing graphical/tabular classifications of the bibliometric information, sources of the records, frequent location, contribution of the private hospital services in the health system, and roles of DPHS in UHC. This study was performed following the published methodological guidance of the Joanna Briggs Institute for the conduct of scoping review, applying some major databases and search engines. In addition, a narrative-thematic synthesis integrated with the systematic analysis using the policy framework of the World Health Organization was employed. The 28 included records in English which met the inclusion criteria were found between 2014 and January 2020. The chronological trend of records was progressive until 2019. India was the most frequent location (12%). China and Sri Lanka on the one end of the spectrum and Somalia along with South Korea from the other end were, respectively, the least and the most contributed countries in terms of DPHS. Overall, 90% of the roles were concerned with UHC goals. Although evidence has revealed inconsistency in the identified roles, a continuous chain of positive or negative effects in the UHC objectives and goals was observed. Some knowledge gaps about the roles, causes of the increasing and decreasing DPHS contribution, and its behaviors around the privatization types and circumstances of the delivery were recommended as prioritized research agendas for evidence-based policymaking in future.

The success of rehabilitation centers depends on several factors, one of the most important of which is patient’s satisfaction. Therefore, suitable instruments must be used to assess the quality of services in rehabilitation centers.
In this research, we used the random sampling method to select the sample and the survey research method to collect data. The statistical population included all patients visiting the selected rehabilitation centers of Tehran City. In this regard, 4 rehabilitation centers; Rofaydeh Rehabilitation Hospital (public), Shohadaye Tajrish Hospital (public), Imam Zadeh Hassan Rehabilitation Center (private), and Arman Rehabilitation Center (private) were selected. Given the infinite statistical population size, the sample size was calculated using the scientific research methodology and Cochran’s sample size formula. The statistical sample size estimated for the infinite statistical population of this research was 486 with 95% confidence level. The research variables were assessed using a researcher-made questionnaire called the “patient’s satisfaction with rehabilitation services questionnaire”. The content and face validity of the questionnaire was approved by the experts. The estimated reliability of the questionnaire was 0.83 using Cronbach's α coefficient method. The descriptive and inferential statistics methods (i.e. the independent t test and 1-way analysis of variance) were used to analyze the data.
The research findings reflected the clients’ satisfaction with the rehabilitation services and their components (i.e. reception services, therapist services, and waiting time) in public and private hospitals. Also a significant difference was found between the levels of patients’ satisfaction with rehabilitation services in private and public hospitals (P≤0.005), and clients were more satisfied with the services of public hospitals than private hospitals.
In addition, there was no significant difference between the levels of patients’ satisfaction with rehabilitation services with respect to demographic variables (including age, education, gender, and respondent), but a significant difference was observed in terms of ward. Finally, the results of the Friedman test revealed that satisfaction with therapist services had the first rank followed by patient’s satisfaction with the waiting time and then with reception (admission) services.

Hospital portals, as the first virtual entry, play an important role in connecting people with hospital and also presenting hospital virtual services. The main purpose of this article was to suggest a conceptual model to improve Tehran private hospital portals. The suggested model can be used by all the health portals that are in the same circumstances and all the health portals which are in progress.
This is a practical research, using evaluative survey research method. Research population includes all the private hospital portals in Tehran, 34 portals, and ten top international hospital portals. Data gathering tool used in this research was a researcher-made checklist including 14 criteria and 77 sub-criteria with their weight score. In fact, objective observation with the mentioned checklist was used to gather information. Descriptive statistics were used to analyze the data and tables and graphs were used to present the organized data. Also, data were analyzed using independent t-test. Conceptual modeling technique was used to design the model and demonstration method was used to evaluate the proposed model. In this regard, SPSS statistical software was used to perform the tests.
The comparative study between the two groups of portals, TPH and WTH, in the 14 main criteria showed that the value of t-test in contact information criteria was 0.862, portal page specification was -1.378, page design criteria -1.527, updating pages -0.322, general information and access roads -3.161, public services -7.302, patient services -4.154, patient data -8.703, research and education -9.155, public relationship -3.009, page technical specifications -4.726, telemedicine -7.488, pharmaceutical services -6.183, and financial services -2.782. Finally, the findings demonstrated that Tehran private hospital portals in criterion of contact information were favorable; page design criteria were relatively favorable; page technical specifications, portal page specification, public relationship, patient data, general information and access roads, and financial services were inappropriate. Also, patient services, updating pages, public services, pharmaceutical services, research and education, and telemedicine were in a poor condition.
Results of this study suggests that an appropriate model should contain 2 levels with 4 layers.
