In this paper we propose a workflow conceptual model able to represent clinical and managerial activities within healthcare structures, the ATREUS model. This model uses: a) a graphical representation which models the activities and the events that activate them; b) a textual representation of information related to: a set of conditions used for the control of activity execution; the actors who undertake the activity; the resources and tools necessary for its enactment, the clinical and managerial data generated by the activity execution; c) a state diagram which allows the control of the activity execution. The model allows modularity, activity nesting and temporal flexibility using a top-down refinement of processes. This model, unlike others, makes it possible to highlight the different types of decision involved in the performance of an activity.

Background: The concept of 'EntrepreNursing' improves healthcare outcomes by enhancing quality, accessibility, and cost-effectiveness, but remains underutilized by clinical nurses. Research on how to promote EntrepreNursing is scant.
Purpose: To examine how personal characteristics (internal locus of control, capacity to innovate) and organizational innovativeness influence nurses' innovative behaviors.
Background: The reforms that have affected public health care organizations have changed the tasks and responsibilities of physicians heading operational units, who have become doctor-managers. This hybridization makes doctor-managers vulnerable to role ambiguities, with possible dysfunctional effects on their managerial behaviors and performance. The enhancement of different sources of budgetary performance feedback (BPF) and perceived organizational support (POS) can help them reconcile their managerial and clinical professional domains.

Design: Generic qualitative study using half-standardized interviews.
