چکیده

مقدمه: رویکرد یکپارچگی در مدیریت زنجیره تأمین سبز، تلاش‌های هماهنگ برای تنظیم منابع مختلف را در یک سازمان و در سراسر زنجیره‌های تأمین برای اجرای بهترین روش‌ مدیریت محیط ‌زیست امکان‌پذیر می‌سازد و منجر به بهبود عملکرد سازمان‌ها می‌شود. پژوهش حاضر با هدف تعیین رابطه یکپارچگی زنجیره تأمین سبز و عملکرد پایدار در مراکز خدمات درمانی یزد صورت گرفت.   روش بررسی: این مطالعه از نوع کمی- کیفی بود و نمونه آماری آن را 10 نفر از خبرگان و 110 نفر از کارشناسان زنجیره تأمین بیمارستان‌های دولتی شهر یزد تشکیل داد. ابتدا با انجام تحقیق مروری و روش تحلیل مضمون، شاخص‌های اولیه یکپارچگی زنجیره تأمین سبز و عملکرد پایدار شناسایی گردید. سپس بر اساس مصاحبه نیمه ساختار یافته با 10 نفر از خبرگان دانشگاهی و مراکز خدمات درمانی، شاخص‌های مذکور مورد بازبینی قرار گرفت. مطابق با شاخص‌های نهایی، پرسش‌نامه‌ای جهت ارزیابی متغیرهای پژوهش بین مدیران و کارشناسان بخش خدمات درمانی 6 بیمارستان دولتی یزد توزیع شد. در نهایت، داده‌ها با استفاده از مدل‌یابی معادلات ساختاری بر پایه‌ روش کم‌ترین مربعات جزیی تجزیه و تحلیل گردید.یافته‌ها: یکپارچگی زنجیره تأمین به ترتیب 78، 75 و 68 درصد از تغییرات ابعاد عملکرد پایدار به ترتیب اجتماعی، اقتصادی و زیست ‌محیطی را تبیین نمود. بنابراین، یکپارچگی زنجیره تأمین سبز در این مراکز می‌تواند باعث کاهش آلودگی‌های زیست‌ محیطی، بهبود وجهه اجتماعی، ارتقای سطح کیفی خدمات و در نهایت، بهبود عملکرد اقتصادی مراکز خدمات درمانی شود.نتیجه‌گیری: خروجی نهایی مطالعه حاضر، مدل اندازه‌گیری رابطه یکپارچگی زنجیره تأمین سبز و بهبود عملکرد پایدار مراکز خدمات درمانی شهر یزد می‌باشد که برای کارشناسان امر سلامت به‌ منظور برنامه‌ریزی جهت بهبود پایداری در مراکز خدمات درمانی، مفید خواهد بود.

چکیده [English]

Introduction:Applying an integration approach to green supply chain management in health care centers can improve its performance, as integration enables coordinated efforts to regulate different resources within organization and across supply chains for implementing best practices in environmental management. This study endeavors to investigate the relationship between green supply chain integration and sustainable performance in healthcare centers of Yazd, Iran.Methods: The participants of this quantitative-qualitative study were 10 specialists and 59 experts from the supply chain of public hospitals in Yazd. Initially, library studies, and content analysis were conducted, and the initial indicators were identified. Then, based on semi-structured interviews with 10 university experts and healthcare centers, these indicators were reviewed. According to the final indicators, a questionnaire was distributed among managers and health service experts of six public hospitals in Yazd to evaluate the study variables. Finally, 59 questionnaires were collected and employed to analyze the data through the SmartPLS software.Results: The final output of the study was a model for measuring the relationship between green supply chain integration and improving the sustainable performance of health care centers in Yazd, which will be useful for health experts to plan to improve sustainability in healthcare centers.Conclusion: Supply chain integration expressed 78%, 75%, and 68% of the changes in the dimensions of sustainable social, economic, and environmental performance, respectively. In effect, the integration of the green supply chain in these centers will reduce environmental pollution, improve the social facets, and elevate the quality of services, and ultimately improve the economic performance of healthcare service centers.
