This book describes the function of planning and why it is important to decision making in healthcare organizations. It explains the origins of planning, application to healthcare, and types of plans, and reviews the practical advantages and disadvantages of planning. The book provides an overview of the strategic planning process, including fundamental steps in the process, the influence of leadership, and the impact of quality improvement. It describes each of the steps in the strategic planning process, organizational purpose and the importance of an organization's mission to its planning and operational activities. The book also introduces the importance of a situational analysis to inform future direction and plans and describes the importance of setting objectives and why there might be resistance to setting organizational objectives. It explains how to accomplish objectives through the development and implementation of strategies and operational plans. The book also presents the relationship of strategies to objectives, methods for evaluating an organization's products and services, and the role of budgeting. It describes the feedback loop in the strategic planning processs—evaluation and control. The book finally discusses the importance of viewing strategic planning as a continuous process and common tools that are used to evaluate and improve plans.

This second edition of the book, like the first, provides an overview of major issues associated with societal and global aging, paralleling the structure of many introductory social gerontology textbooks. Unlike most existing textbooks in the field, however, the discussion of each topic in this work is explicitly comparative, focusing on similarities and variations in the aging experience across nations, religions, and levels of economic and social development. The comparative perspective is enhanced further by topical essays and country-specific descriptions of aging policies, programs, and experiences. The book also introduces in this edition several important innovations not found in the previous version. First, the authors have dropped two chapters (The Welfare State and Disability and Active Life Expectancy), incorporating their content elsewhere. In addition, they split three earlier chapters (Health and Health Care Systems; Work and Retirement; and Families, Caregiving, and Community Support Systems) into two new chapters each, so now the authors include six separate chapters: Health Beliefs and Behavior, Health Care, Older Workers, Retirement and Pensions, Family Life, and Caregiving. Finally, because the first edition neglected two topics crucial to the lives of older people—physical environments and religion—the authors have added an entirely new chapter devoted to each. As for the first edition, the intended audiences remain students in undergraduate and graduate courses in global aging and their faculty. In addition, many of the topics addressed will also be of interest to faculty and students in undergraduate and graduate courses in the demography of aging and sociology of aging, as well as courses in gerontology taught with a comparative, international focus. The authors hope that it will serve to focus the attention of all gerontologists on the growth and value of the research and teaching going on in countries outside the United States and Europe.

Health policy is a dynamic field of study. Since the first edition of this textbook, much has changed in terms of the political landscape, public health, health care, and data analytics. This book provides an overview of concepts, tools, and resources that will open the door of public health policy analysis to students. Students can adapt the framework and foundational tools to provide a springboard for life-long learning and inquiry. Health policy analysis is not for the faint of heart. It is a challenging task that requires synthesizing knowledge from multiple disciplines and using many different skills. The book focuses primarily on the US federal government with additional general coverage of state and local governments. However, it is important to point out the importance of other countries, especially developing countries, as well as the Indigenous populations within the United States. The authors experience from teaching classes in health policy has been that students generally lack a nuanced understanding of the
US political system. As a consequence, the authors added several new chapters on the US political system. The chapters also include Breakout Boxes that provide conceptual details and practical examples. The authors provide an overview of the US political structure, process, and culture with examples drawn from public health. Health policy analysis occurs in multiple types of settings. After graduation, one may be employed by a non-profit health organization, a member of Congress, a governmental agency at the national state or local level, a political think tank, a public or private research center, a lobbying or advocacy organization, etc. The task of conducting a policy analysis may involve developing a policy proposal to assess one or more alternatives a priori or evaluating the success of a policy that has already been implemented.
