The Vision of the ASL of Frosinone
The Company’s vision consists of being and wanting to be part of a system widely oriented towards the continuous improvement of the quality of care to meet the increasingly complex needs of citizens, making use of the evolution of techniques and knowledge.
A reliable, competitive and recognized company, capable of making sustainable choices that guarantee quality, safety and equity in the health governance system, integrated into the local and regional network, based on principles of public ethics. It recognizes professionals and is recognized through their skills, as a hub of organizational innovation, clinical governance, research, intra and extra-company integration.
The company Vision is expressed in the project of creating a strategic plan of strong integration with the various sectors of the local community, in order to achieve a health policy, understood as the quality of life of the entire community.
The Company’s strategic vision is aimed at consolidating the awareness that health is not a linear result produced by a technical-professional performance, but a result socially constructed by the interaction of numerous factors (cultural, social, relational, biological, economic).
This makes the transition from health care to a coordinated health plan necessary and timely.
The Company recognizes the centrality of the person and their needs and health expectations as the need to take charge of its users, through the creation of a network of integrated social care services, which can strengthen the hospital-territory bond, ensure continuity of care and initiative medicine.
The construction of a network of alliances with public and private social actors, with universities, must reinforce the value of the Company and its commitment to providing services and its organisational methodology must be inspired by the principles of economy, efficiency and effectiveness in order to guarantee a level of quality such as to achieve full user satisfaction.
The centrality of the citizen (placed at the centre of the system as a bearer of constitutionally guaranteed rights) represents the fundamental point on which to base social-health planning and the organisation of the supply delivery system, orienting services and care processes to real needs.
Hence the choice of organizational models that can fully respond to the overall needs of citizens, that can combine effectiveness, efficiency, equity with cost-effectiveness and that can promote clinical and organizational appropriateness such as:
- the care model for intensity of care;
- the day care care model;
- own-initiative medicine;
- hospital-territory integration and continuity of care.
