Evaluation of Midwifery Practices among Registered Midwives in Selected Hospitals in Limpopo Province, South Africa

Midwifery practices are defined as the level of midwifery care in which midwives use their expertise, management, and clinical leadership to provide personalized, evidence-based care to women independently and autonomously. Midwifery care includes antepartum, intrapartum, and postpartum care, which are defined by the WHO as the care provided by skilled healthcare professionals to pregnant women and adolescent girls to ensure the best health conditions for the mother and baby during the antepartum, intrapartum and postpartum period. The aim of this study was to evaluate midwifery practices among registered midwives in selected hospitals in Limpopo Province, South Africa. The quantitative, descriptive, and cross-sectional research design was used to assess and describe midwifery practices among registered midwives in selected hospitals in Limpopo Province, South Africa. The population size was 100 registered midwives in the selected hospitals. The sample size of 80 registered midwives was determined using the Slovin formula. Simple random sampling was used to select the sample. A self-developed questionnaire was tested and validated prior to conducting the main study. The findings of the pilot study were used to refine the questionnaire before being used for the main study. Reliability and validity were ensured. Data were analyzed using the Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS) version 27 with the assistance of a statistician. The study revealed inadequate provision of midwifery care during antepartum, intrapartum, and postpartum periods due to lack of resources and equipment. The shortage of midwives and the shorter experience in the clinical setting within the midwifery environment were overwhelming. The study concluded that the practices of registered midwives were inadequate due to some challenges they faced during the provision of midwifery care. Inadequate midwifery practices have serious implications for the health and well-being of mothers and newborns. These practices were influenced by various factors, such as inadequate material and human resources and lack and malfunctioning of available equipment. The study recommended that women have access to a variety of pain relief options during labor, including both pharmacological and non-pharmacological methods. In addition, the study recommended implementation of the presence of doulas during labor and childbirth.

Sustainable Employment for People with Disabilities: A Scoping Review on Workplace Practices and Positive Employment Outcomes

This is a scoping review of literature on positive employment outcomes for people with disabilities (PWD) and stakeholders in the organization. The aim is to investigate the connection between workplace practices and positive employment outcomes contributing to sustainable employment. Methodologically, the scoping process commenced with four electronic databases and resulted in a total of 42 articles. We identified seven categories of workplace practices that contributed to positive employment outcomes: accommodation, cultural practices, human resource management (HRM) practices, leadership, participation, support, and training. We identified five categories of positive employment outcomes: employment experiences of PWD, employment outcomes of PWD, employment outcomes of stakeholders in the organizations, work performance, and organizational outcomes. The article discusses the findings in relation to studies on employment of PWD which often focus on discrimination and barriers faced by PWD. The scoping process revealed a research gap where the majority of articles described positive employment experiences of PWD, while only a few articles described positive employment experiences of stakeholders in the organization. We propose that future research focus on workplace practices that can advance our theoretical and empirical understanding of what contributes to sustainable employment of PWD.

An Evaluation of The Impact of Leadership Styles on the Performance of SMEs in Zambia: A Conceptual Perspective

Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs) contribute a significant portion to Zambia’s economy, playing vital roles in employment, revenue generation, and societal development. Despite their importance, SMEs in Zambia face challenges, including high failure rates attributed to ineffective management and unsuitable leadership. Leadership is crucial for organizational success, yet its impact on SME performance in Zambia remains underexplored. This research aims to assess the influence of leadership styles on Zambian SMEs' performance. The study is rooted in the understanding that effective leadership is essential for organizational success, particularly in SMEs facing dynamic and competitive environments. Drawing on existing literature, the research examines various leadership styles, including transformational, transactional, laissez-faire, and servant leadership. Leadership styles have significant implications for organizational performance. Transformational leadership inspires followers to surpass expectations and fosters innovation and employee motivation. Transactional leadership focuses on goal setting and rewards, ensuring compliance but may limit long-term growth. Laissez-faire leadership grants autonomy but risks organizational disorganization. Servant leadership prioritizes employee well-being, adaptability, and long-term sustainability, aligning closely with SME needs. The study suggests that servant leadership is particularly well-suited for managing Zambian SMEs due to its emphasis on employee engagement, adaptability, talent retention, organizational culture, and long-term sustainability. By fostering a supportive environment, empowering employees, and promoting a positive organizational culture, servant leaders can navigate the challenges faced by Zambian SMEs and nurture their growth and success. In conclusion, effective leadership is crucial for Zambian SMEs to thrive in today's competitive landscape. Servant leadership emerges as a promising approach for managing SMEs, offering a holistic framework that prioritizes employee well-being and organizational sustainability. Recommendations include fostering servant leadership practices among SME culture and contribute to Zambia’s economy.

HOSPITAL MANAGEMENT SYSTEM BASED ON WEB

Hospital Management Systems (HMS) represent a key advancement in healthcare technology designed to revolutionize operational efficiency, raise standards of patient care and ensure compliance with regulatory protocols. This paper explores the multifaceted functions of HMS, highlighting its role in automating administrative tasks, supporting real-time access to patient data, and facilitating seamless communication between healthcare professionals. Drawing on current research and practical implementations, we delve into the transformative potential of HMS, particularly in the context of recent innovations in telemedicine, data analytics, and remote monitoring systems. In our research, we present SIMRS, a robust hospital management information system developed using the waterfall method, strategically focused on the systematic improvement of hospital operations. By automating key processes such as patient registration, appointment scheduling, payment and inventory management, SIMRS optimizes hospital workflows and ultimately improves patient care delivery. In addition, we examine the empirical evidence that shows the significant impact of management systems and leadership traits on the quality of care in hospital settings, and highlight the indispensable role of effective leadership and management frameworks. Next, we discuss the technical foundations of HMS and highlight the integration of various programming languages and database management systems such as HTML, CSS, JavaScript, PHP, MySQL, and MongoDB. This cross-disciplinary approach underscores the synergy between technological innovation and healthcare management, paving the way for a more efficient patient- centered healthcare ecosystem. In summary, this research illuminates the transformative potential of HMS to revolutionize healthcare operations, improve patient outcomes and optimize resource allocation, advocating for its widespread adoption to shape the future of healthcare delivery.
