The purpose of this study was to grasp which effect the healthcare accreditation has on hospital employees' satisfaction level and hospital management performance by comparatively analyzing between accreditation hospital and non-accreditation hospital. As for difference in hospital employees' satisfaction level according to accreditation system, the incentive payment and pride of own task at the accreditation hospital and the hospital management effect were indicated to have positive(+) influence with statistically significant difference upon the item such as accuracy of task performance owing to the business standardization. It was indicated that hospital employees' satisfaction is high at the accreditation hospital and that the higher satisfaction level leads to having influence upon the effect of hospital management. What a country differentiates medical bill or supports medical equipment for medical institution that acquired accreditation is considered to be a plan for activation that can allow non-accreditation hospitals to be able to participate positively in the voluntary accreditation system.

As the competition among the hospital becomes heavier and cognition in patient's right of knowledge increases, of general hospital becomes more important public relation part of hospital administration. Due to the restriction of the public advertisement of a hospital, strategic plans and new ideas are needed. Leaflet or hospital publication, for example, could be excellent publicity materials since they provide specific and detailed information for patients, which results in great improvement on the hospital image. Therefore, the editorial design for hospital publicity is the necessary research field. Also questionnaires of user's sense regarding the Hospital's printed matter for the publicity were conducted and analyzed. From these analyses, new improved printed matter design for the publicity of general hospital that are useful for the users as well as hospital competition was suggested.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship among the consumption value and hospital satisfaction and patient caregiver's psychological well-being(PWB) in geriatric hospitals. Data from 355 subjects were collected and analyzed. The findings are as follows. Functional value and emotional value influenced hospital satisfaction positively, while rarity value influenced negatively. Hospital satisfaction influenced patient caregiver's "PWB" positively. And family's support, which had a positive effect on patient 'caregiver's "PWB", played a role in moderating variable between functional value and hospital satisfaction. From this study, the implications of the findings were discussed and hospital management research project that geriatric hospitals should improve hospital satisfaction and "PWB" of patient caregiver was proposed.

To achieve eco-friendly hospitals it is necessary to empirically verify the effect of meteorological factors on the power consumption of the hospital. Using daily meteorological big data from 2009 to 2013, we studied the weather conditions impact to power consumption and analyzed the patterns of power consumption of two hospitals. R analysis revealed that temperature among the meteorological factors had the greatest impact on the hospital power consumption, and was a significant factor regardless of hospital size. The pattern of hospital power consumption differed considerably depending on the hospital size. The larger hospital had a linear pattern of power consumption and the smaller hospital had a quadratic nonlinear pattern. A typical pattern of increasing power consumption during a hot summer and a cold winter was evident for both hospitals. The results of this study suggest that a hospital's functional specificity and meteorological factors should be considered to improve energy savings and eco-friendly building.

Fusarium oxysporum was isolated most frequently, followed by F. moniliforme, and F. solani from infected asparagus plants grown in the field. In pathogenicity tests both with seedlings and plantlets, F. moniliforme showed higher virulence than Fusarium oxysporum did in general. Fusarium moniliforme showed more consistent virulence on both seedlings and plantlets than F. oxysporum did. Fusarium oxysporum showed higher virulence on plantlets than on seedlings. Fusarium solani showed very weak or no sign of virulence on seedlings and plantlets, respectively, in both tests. In protection tests with plantlets, most protection of asparagus against virulent fusarial infections occurred when challenge isolates were inoculated five or seven days after inoculation of protective fusarial species. Avirulent F. oxysporum was a more effective protective agent against infection of F. moniliforme than it was against F. oxysporum. Fusarium solani was more effective against infection of F. oxysporum than it was against F. moniliforme.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of perceived medical service quality by outpatient on hospital image, satisfaction, and re-use intention in a general hospital. A total of 176 questionnaires were administered to outpatients who presented to a S general hospital in Daejeon. The results of this study are as follows. First, medical service quality had significant effects on re-use intention, satisfaction, and hospital image. Second, the mediating effect of satisfaction on the relationship between medical service quality and re-use intention was not significant but the mediating effect of hospital image on the relationship was significant. Third, satisfaction and hospital image had significant effects on re-use intention. Consequently, this study verified the influence of perceived medical service quality by outpatient on hospital image, satisfaction, and re-use intention in a general hospital. Further, considering that hospital image, rather than satisfaction, mediates the relationship between perceived medical service quality and re-use intention, it suggests that much more general satisfaction is required in the marketing activities of hospitals.

This study purposed to develop GIS model for evaluating hospital location in a metropolitan city. Secondly, the suitability score of hospital was compared with the number of outpatient/inpatients of hospitals. This study used administrative data collected from the annual report of the 5 ward offices from Daejeon in Korea in 2004. 7 Acute care hospitals operated in Daejeon in 2004 were selected for the analysis. The suitability of hospitals in a metropolitan city was evaluated by the economic factors which were assumed to influence the health care demand. Each criterion was measured from each Dong. Correlation coefficients between the suitability score of hospital and the number of patients were varied depending on the buffering size. The relationship showed positive relationship with the number of inpatient (0.15) and outpatients (0.10) on the 0.5km buffering size. However, the correlation coefficients were changed to a negative direction or decreased when the buffering size was increased to 1.0km, 1.5km, and 2.0km.

The profitability of a hospital refers to business administration results achieved through its medical care and other management activities during applicable fiscal year. This study focused on operating margin as a measurement index of hospital profitability, which is a genuine medical return obtained by subtracting medical expenses from medical profits achieved during business administration of hospital. Based on the index, this study could deduce certain factors on hospital profitability in terms of various indices affecting profitability. And based on those factors, this study sought to provide more useful reference materials which allow us to devise possible ways to improve hospital profitability. As a result, it was found that public hospitals attained lower profitability than private ones. To analyze profitability depending on each index, this study divided hospitals broadly into deficit group and surplus group. As a result, it was found that there were significant differences in hospital profitability between two groups depending upon relevant indices such as labor cost ratio, maintenance expense ratio, number of operations per medical specialist and medical instrument turnover. According to analysis on potential effects of relevant indices upon profitability, it was found that each index had its explanatory power ranging from 25% to 74.5% depending on given model.
