Embracing a sustainable approach in health care supply chains entails improving organizational practices and processes adopting innovative sustainable practices that contribute positively to public life quality. Although there have been significant research contributions toward the adoption of innovations in health care and the incorporation of sustainability in health care supply chains, there has been scant research that has collectively considered sustainability and innovation in health care supply chains. Our work attempts to address this research gap. The main objective of this research is to propose a sustainability-oriented innovation (SOI)-driven assessment guide and decision-making framework for health care managers to enhance sustainability. To demonstrate the applicability of the proposed framework, health care experts from seven large renowned UAE-based hospitals were interviewed to assess health care SOI criteria by using a group multicriteria decision-making method (MCDM). The results of this study indicate the need to increase knowledge and clarity regarding SOI to advance the health care industry. The SOI framework is used as a guide for administrative managers and decision-makers in the health care industry. It can help assess and enhance health care sustainability by improving capabilities and implementing innovative practices with available resources. We conclude with a set of topics for further research in SOI practices in the health care sector and its supply chains.

以可持续发展为导向的医疗保健供应链创新

在医疗保健供应链中采用可持续方法需要改进组织实践和流程,采用创新的可持续实践,为公共生活质量做出积极贡献。尽管在采用医疗保健创新和将可持续性纳入医疗保健供应链方面做出了重大研究贡献,但很少有研究将医疗保健供应链的可持续性和创新综合考虑在内。我们的工作试图解决这一研究空白。本研究的主要目标是为医疗保健管理者提出一个以可持续性为导向的创新 (SOI) 驱动的评估指南和决策框架,以提高可持续性。为了证明拟议框架的适用性,来自阿联酋七家大型知名医院的医疗保健专家接受了采访,以使用群体多标准决策方法 (MCDM) 评估医疗保健 SOI 标准。这项研究的结果表明,需要增加有关 SOI 的知识和清晰度,以推动医疗保健行业的发展。SOI 框架用作医疗保健行业行政管理人员和决策者的指南。它可以通过提高能力和利用可用资源实施创新实践来帮助评估和增强医疗保健的可持续性。我们以一系列主题结束,以进一步研究医疗保健部门及其供应链中的 SOI 实践。这项研究的结果表明,需要增加有关 SOI 的知识和清晰度,以推动医疗保健行业的发展。SOI 框架用作医疗保健行业行政管理人员和决策者的指南。它可以通过提高能力和利用可用资源实施创新实践来帮助评估和增强医疗保健的可持续性。我们总结了一系列主题,以进一步研究医疗保健部门及其供应链中的 SOI 实践。这项研究的结果表明,需要增加关于 SOI 的知识和清晰度,以推动医疗保健行业的发展。SOI 框架用作医疗保健行业行政管理人员和决策者的指南。它可以通过提高能力和利用可用资源实施创新实践来帮助评估和增强医疗保健的可持续性。我们总结了一系列主题,以进一步研究医疗保健部门及其供应链中的 SOI 实践。它可以通过提高能力和利用可用资源实施创新实践来帮助评估和增强医疗保健的可持续性。我们总结了一系列主题,以进一步研究医疗保健部门及其供应链中的 SOI 实践。它可以通过提高能力和利用可用资源实施创新实践来帮助评估和增强医疗保健的可持续性。我们总结了一系列主题,以进一步研究医疗保健部门及其供应链中的 SOI 实践。
