Table 3 Example from the analytic process
Cases | Data extract | Coded for | Theme |
|---|---|---|---|
Case 1 | Many of our employees work several different places, so we had to reallocate some of our staff. Some were temporarily employed, and if they worked part-time two different places, they were offered full-time position at one place. | Reorganizing and reallocating resources | Managerial strategies to mitigate shortages of healthcare staff |
Case 2 | Then we had to start search for personnel from other parts in the organization and redistribute tasks among staff… … We had some personnel in sick leave that could contribute because their work were facilitated according to what they managed to do. | Reorganizing and reallocating resources | |
