The frame of reference is the St. Galler Management Model, where management theory is understood as a form of applied social science which deals with the design, management and development problems found in organisation contexts. The focus is on the acquisition of science-based economic knowledge for management decisions and on acquiring the initial skills needed to conduct research. Concepts of economic evaluation and its application, measurement of benefits and costs, justice concepts in health care The St. Gallen management model in health facilities: enterprise as a system, basic categories, workplace as the subject of business administration studies, socio-economic significance Economies and the economic principle, economic indicators, sustainability Operational objectives and target systems: meaning, forms and relations of interdependence Constitutive decisions: location decisions, legal forms, joint ventures and business combinations (such as practice networks, medical care centres) Added value: basic structure of the operational service process, effectiveness and efficiency, provision of integrated services, value chain according to Porter, basic principles of production and cost theory, costs and revenues, break-even analysis Investment and finance: concept and types, investment analysis, investment decisions, term financing, objectives of financial decisions, financing, short-and long-term financing, leverage, financing rules External and internal accounting: tasks, basic concepts, accounting, balance sheet, profit and loss account, cost element, cost centre and cost unit accounting Management and auditing: basic tasks and forms of managing and auditing, basic principles of organisation and human resources management Fundamentals of strategic marketing: business strategies, market participant strategies, marketing tools strategies Fundamentals of operative marketing: tools, marketing mix and marketing auditing Seminar and self-directed learning, supported in part by work in study groups and by e-learning No special knowledge or skills are required The module is suitable for use in management oriented study programmes in the health field.

In this module students acquire the skills needed to design, according to the criteria of completeness, comprehensibility and reliability, interactive consumer based information, at the same time they will develop a theoretically based competency in understanding consumers' situations. The possibilities and limits of the concept of 'shared decision making' will also be analysed.

The aim of this module is to provide students with the theoretical and methodical expertise they need to deal with the different goals of communication (information, instruction, advice) and their potential recipients (e.g., patients, relatives and staff). Social and personal skills are strengthened through concrete examples from practice and through practical exercises, as well as through a critical reflection on the examples and exercises. Professional information and advice in the context of nursing with respect to SGB SGB XI and XII Target-group adequate information; instruction and advice to patients and relatives following the participatory communication approach Professional communication as a management tool for leadership in nursing; communication strategies for resolving conflict Negotiations at inter-institutional levels Strategies of communication in the context of different communication objectives in nursing and nursing management Seminar; practical exercises and self-directed learning; innovative forms of learning.
