“…This finding was confirmed by Swedish authors, who also concluded that the management has a major role in creating opportunities for health professionals to participate in HP activities (Johansson et al, 2010). In a systematic review of HP services provided by the US hospitals in their communities, Olden and Hoffman (Olden and Hoffman, 2011) also concluded that hospitals should apply management methods to effectively introduce HP services.…”

SUMMARYThe standards for health promotion (HP) addressing five domains such as (1) management policy, (2) patient assessment, (3) patient information and intervention, (4) promoting a healthy workplace and (5) improving continuity and cooperation have been elaborated and applied within the International Networks of Health Promoting Hospitals (HPH). The awareness of HP activities by health professionals and their opinions as to the applicability of the five HP standards in three randomly selected hospitals of the Lithuanian HPH network was assessed. A questionnaire survey of physicians and nurses (including chiefs of the selected departments as managerial staff ) working in three different-sized hospitals was carried out. The overall response rate constituted 74.7%, with 280 physicians and 739 nurses completing the survey. One in four respondents stated that the first, second and fifth standards could be implemented into daily practice whereas one in three respondents held the same belief in respect to the third and fourth standards. Health professionals from the small hospital possessed better knowledge and demonstrated a more positive opinion with respect to the applicability of all five standards compared with the larger hospitals. No difference was observed between the opinions of physicians and nurses concerning the applicability of the first and second HP standards, yet a significantly larger number of nurses, compared with physicians, expressed a positive attitude towards the implementation of the remaining three standards. More physicians and nurses with managerial roles, compared with those not involved in the management of hospitals, reported that all five standards could be integrated into daily practice.

“…However, the authors' findings that hospital size and collaborative networks were positively associated with more community programs and that state community benefit laws had no association with programs continue to be relevant. However, the concepts of evaluation or impact were not raised anywhere in the review (73). A literature review by Burke et al showed that out of 106 programs that met inclusion criteria, over half occurred in the hospital facility and focused on clinical interventions (28).…”

“…In many health promotion programs implemented in hospitals, the community needs assessment is one of the preparatory measures ( 16 ). Other health promotion projects for implementing health promotion programs in the hospitals focus on managerial methods, sharing and using resources ( 17 ), and collaboration with society organizations ( 18 ). Finally, many hospitals in the world have implemented the WHO HPH program and have achieved cost-effectiveness and quality assurance of health services ( 19 – 20 ).…”

Abstract: Collaboration and linkages with other organizations enable hospitals to expand HP. Hospitals should apply management methods (not just HP methods) to effectively offer HP services. Support for small hospitals' HP is needed.
