Moreover, there is a shortage of medical personnel and the present personnel are demoralized. The study recommends an established Environmental Scanning Framework that encompasses various dimensions, including political, economic, social, technological, legal, and environmental factors. Assign a dedicated team within each referral hospital responsible for conducting regular environmental scans and analyzing the findings.
