Hospital Sant Joan de Déu: From Charitable Hospital to Reference Hospital (A) (Portuguese version, Portugal)

Description

In early 2012, Barcelona's Hospital Sant Joan de Déu was considering how to update its strategic plan in order to deal with a crisis situation - with a reduction in both demand and public budgets - and to guarantee the center's survival, without this involving the loss of the advances achieved in previous years.

Learning Objective

This case may be considered from the point of view of the management of a center at a time of crisis, of the strategic repositioning of the service internationalization, of the strengthening of research, etc. It is a success story that allows for consideration of the possibilities that still exist in periods of crisis.
