All of us who work in hospital settings often wonder who the hell will have thought that the construction and design made for the occasion are the best for patients and hospital workers. Are hospitals built thinking of the people who will spend a large part of their work in them, such as health professionals? Is the opinion of patients considered for the organization of services? Or in most of the occasions, they are whims of the architects of the moment who are only thinking about their architectural tastes and that they look good in the photo?

Hospital management is a decision-making process that aims to achieve maximum benefit for the patient. A hospital, apart from offering medical services, is a place where patients stay. It is for this reason that different areas such as nutrition, medicine, lodging, the financial system, the professional team, and internal and external communication, among others, must be coordinated.
The flow of information should be facilitated, and the assistance to patients be more effective. It is also important to share more results in the healthcare and economic field and ensure that the agents involved have the best possible training.
The ultimate goal of the hospital manager is to integrate the different areas that make up a hospital, facilitating the flow of information, guaranteeing the improvement of hospital processes and making the assistance provided to patients more effectively.
