摘要
This study aims to investigate efficient practices pursuing the sustainability of healthcare organizations, as the healthcare sector and its activities affect different spheres of social life, the economy, and the state's performance, highlighting the importance of this subject. To achieve the aim of this study, a systematic review methodology was applied, and the data were obtained from 67 papers published within the scope of the two most cited databases: Scopus and Web of Science. As a result of the analysis, the following efficient practices were suggested to improve the sustainability of healthcare organizations: improvements in management practices, leadership practices, manager selection, the engagement of clinicians in the management, the promotion of organizational culture and management style, the promotion of virtual health communication, environmental supply chain management, rational resource consumption, and waste management.
