Supervision helps to prevent or support the staff to reflect on their practice and improve it wherever one could.

Under the President Obama plan, patients will be able to make health care decisions with their doctors, instead of being blocked by insurance company bureaucrats; an official in a government department. The Obama plan requires insurance companies to cover pre-existing conditions so all the Americans regardless of their health status or history can get comprehensive benefits at fair and stable premiums. The Obama plan has created a new Small Business Health Tax Credit to help businesses provide affordable health insurance to their employees. The Obama plan has also prevented insurers from overcharging doctors for their malpractice insurance and invests in proven strategies to reduce preventable medical errors.
Implementing Change Paper Lucionda Berry HCS/475 January 22, 2013 Mrs. Nicole Coarsey Introduction When managing an organization within a healthcare setting, it is very important that management develop a skill to adapt to change, not only gaining knowledge on the changes that are occurring, but being able to communicate those changes to their employees and staff.

Hopefully after reading this paper the reader will have a better understanding on how to implement change effectively amongst staff. What is the manager’s role and responsibility in implementing change in the department?

However, to change the way an organization practices, one must take the culture of its employees and customers into consideration. Ignoring culture in attempting to refocus the values orientation of an organization is similar to ignoring causes and treating symptoms (Cipriano Silva, 1998). Another example of ethical issues in the workplace involves patient confidentiality. On several occasions, administrators are instructed to perform based on standards of the company not congruent with their own.
The compiled data should be composed of specific measurements, input from employees as to suggestions for improvement and concerns as well as patient care results and input. The eminence and accessibility of the company’s resources must be evaluated first. Quality improvement (QI) measures the delivery of medical services and the outcomes like patient health status, mortality, and patient satisfaction (Hughes, 2012). Total Quality Management (TQM) is a model, which includes the organization’s management, staff working together as a team, outlines procedures, and policies, promotes methods of intellectual rational, and a modification to produce an atmosphere for excellence (Hughes, 2012). The construction of Continuous Quality Improvement (CQI) benefits the process of TQM; with the attitude that every chance an organization has should be an opening for improvement (Hughes,
