    Notes: A major determinant of organizational productivity is the design of structures and processes within a functioning organization. Research has focused on structures that contribute to productivity, but has given much less attention to the processes that occur particularly in health service organizations. We examined the relationships of organizational process and productivity in 20 nursing work groups in a sample of local health departments in North Carolina. Analysis focused on level of organizational climate (communication flow, decision-making practices, motivational conditions, concern for human resources), leadership behaviors, and quality of group interactions. The relationships of these processes to productivity (number of services produced per unit of staff time available) across a series of major departmental services were evaluated, together with implications of findings for strategies to improve the functioning of nursing work groups.

    Notes: Abstract A performance system is a management tool for ensuring that programs accomplish their objectives. Using Delphi and nominal group process techniques, the authors established objectives for a system to reduce prematurity and low birth weight. A task force consisting of state, regional, and local public health personnel, consultants from the Centers for Disease Control, and faculty from the School of Public Health then developed the activities, standards, and guidelines of the performance system. Finally, an assessment tool for evaluation of the system was designed. The system, which is intended to complement initiatives to improve the medical care of maternity patients, should be useful to maternity clinic managers and supervisors who wish to develop performance standards specifically targeted to the achievement of objectives for reducing prematurity and low birth weight.
