Det livslånga lärandet har stor betydelse för framtidens sjukvård. Dessvärre reagerar sjukvården alltför långsamt på denna förändring. Möjligen kan en kombination av grupphandledning och vårdvetenskap vara rätt medicin. Grupphandledning fungerar som en förändringsprocess med syfte att tillvarata och utveckla gruppens samlade kompetens med den lärande är i fokus där vårdvetenskapen mycket väl skulle passa in. Vårdvetenskapen i sin tur är en humanistisk vetenskap som karakteriseras av en holistisk människosyn som stöttar människans grundbehov och tar hänsyn till dennes personliga värderingar och erfarenheter.

Evaluating and choosing suppliers based on price alone, has traditionally been the dominant strategy for supplier selection within the purchasing function. With the origin of the Total Cost of Ownership (TCO)-concept in the early 1990s, a new philosophy dawned that promoted the importance of knowing the effects of supplier performance on the buying firm?s internal costs. Since then, scholars have been arguing the case of TCO as a viable model for making purchasing decisions and conducting supplier evaluation. Still, after two decades little is known about its penetration and impact on the practices of buying corporations, leaving the questions of which costs are included in the purchasing organisations? decisions unanswered, and even more importantly why certain costs are considered and others not.
