JAMMU, Nov 5: The Academy of Hospital Administration (AHA), Jammu Chapter, convened its General Body Meeting today at Jammu Club, Jammu, with a focus on reviewing the Chapter's past performance, assessing ongoing initiatives and charting a comprehensive roadmap for expanding its academic, professional and capacity-building activities across the Union Territory of Jammu & Kashmir. The meeting witnessed the participation of the senior leadership, members of the Executive Body and other members of the Chapter. The deliberations centred on strengthening the role of AHA as a professional platform for promoting excellence in hospital administration, healthcare management, institutional development and capacity building.
During the meeting, the house reviewed the activities and achievements of the Chapter during the previous period and discussed various strategies to enhance its outreach and engagement with healthcare institutions and other stakeholders. The members emphasised the need for sustained academic engagement, knowledge sharing and collaborative initiatives to address the evolving challenges of the healthcare sector.
A key decision taken during the meeting was to further expand and intensify academic and professional activities across Jammu & Kashmir, with particular emphasis on the Jammu region. The Chapter resolved to actively collaborate with various stakeholders, healthcare institutions, academic organisations and professionals to promote a culture of continuous learning, innovation and professional development.
As part of its proposed action plan, the Chapter will undertake a series of academic and capacity-building initiatives, including quiz competitions, seminars, awareness programmes, Professional Development Management Programmes (PDMPs), Behaviour Change Communication (BCC) activities and other professional development interventions.
These initiatives will primarily focus on major healthcare and public health institutions, including government and private hospitals, Government Medical Colleges (GMCs), nursing colleges and other institutions of public health importance. The objective is to create opportunities for healthcare professionals, administrators, faculty members, nursing professionals and other healthcare workers to enhance their knowledge, skills, managerial competencies and professional capabilities.
The Chapter also envisaged utilising its multidisciplinary pool of experts to provide technical inputs, professional guidance and management-related support to healthcare institutions. This initiative is expected to facilitate knowledge transfer, strengthen institutional practices and encourage the adoption of effective and evidence-based approaches to healthcare administration.
Special emphasis was laid on the importance of effective communication, behavioural change, leadership development, quality improvement, efficient hospital management and strengthening institutional capacities. The members felt that healthcare delivery requires not only clinical excellence but also competent administration, effective teamwork, accountability and a patient-centric approach. |
