This text is dedicated to him, to his passion and...

In most of our hospitals we still deal with Corrective rather than Preventive Maintenance. Fortunately, there is a strong tendency to reverse...
Communication and Leadership in Health Institutions Teresinha Covas Lisboa "Leadership is the person's ability to spontaneously gather people around an idea, a principle, a philosophy or a goal" (Rodriguez, 2005).
