Healthcare management
(objectives)
At the end of the course, students will acquire the general principles of hygiene, public health, and health promotion. Among the objectives are the knowledge of the specific modes of infection transmission; the epidemiological chain; the main infections associated with healthcare; roles and types of epidemiological studies; data from epidemiological stu-dies related to healthcare-associated infections; the concepts of cleaning, sanitation, disin-fection, antisepsis, and sterilization; prevention measures in communities and in healthcare facilities, with particular reference to diagnostic imaging facilities; and the concepts of prophylaxis. These objectives will be achieved through lectures, and with all other tools capable of facili-tating learning and the "problem-solving" of the main aspects of infection prevention and control within applied hygiene. Other indispensable objectives include knowledge of the basic dynamics that regulate market functioning, with particular reference to the healthcare services sector. Students will need to acquire knowledge of the determinants underlying the design and implementation of health policies and the existing relationships between health and economics. Particular attention will be paid to the theme of cost-benefit analysis for the evaluation of public poli-cies, with particular reference to health planning. The teaching of Legal Medicine aims to provide basic knowledge in the field of forensic pathology and legal medicine, with refe-rence to civil, criminal, and ethical aspects. Particular attention will be given to the acquisition of notions indispensable to the practice of the profession and the correct awareness of the ethical and legal framework in which the healthcare professional operates, with reference to the obligations that the professional himself/herself is subject to in the practice of the profession. These objectives will be achieved through lectures and seminars.
