INTRODUCTION

improving performance is a major challenge for hospitals. Measuring it is an arduous task for managers, requiring the implementation of innovative management tools. Nevertheless, it is clear that performance in the Oujda University Hospital neonatology department is intuitively assessed according to a more medical logic that focuses on patient recovery, ignoring other dimensions. The deficit is noted in the use of performance measurement and analysis tools.

AIM

To design a balanced, multidimensional scorecard specific to the SN-CHU department and to make it available to managers to help them steer their performance and make decisions.

METHODS

an intervention research based on a constructivist approach was carried out in the field through 12 interviews with CHU managers. The analysis of the care circuit and process was carried out by means of 37 interviews with carers, supplemented by 30 observations. A series of meetings has enabled to elaborate and validate a set of service performance indicators.

RESULTS

The study revealed that a balanced, multi-dimensional dashboard model has been designed to be available to managers in the UHC-ND. It includes 29 clear, realistic, adapted, accurate, accessible, simple and ergonomic performance indicators. It reflects four measurement dimensions related to organisational development, internal processes, customers and finance. The tool is applicable according to a logic of causality between its axes and allows a descriptive and comparative interpretation of its results. The measures in the model converge mainly towards the satisfaction of patient needs.

CONCLUSION

the construction of such a model has been a real success, because of the determination of decision-makers. However, its translation could be confronted with a low level of commitment from operational staff. Which would require the vigilant passage through a preparation for implementation, taking into account the "player".
