This assignment is Management in Health care
Imagine that you have been appointed the Director of Health at
the Kaluyu Memorial Hospital in Nairobi, Kenya – a for-profit
hospital. The facility is also a referral hospital and receives
severe cases of accidents, chronicle / communicable diseases
and houses an HIV / AIDS ward. As you settle into your
position, you realize that the employees always act scared as
they approach their superiors. Some of the employees even
deliver files and leave your office in a hurry.
As you make your routine departmental visits, you realize that
there are tensions between nurses and doctors, and there is a
sentiment that the nurses tend to do the majority of the work
within patient care but the doctors get all the credit. You realize
that the employees are always looking forward to the end of
their shifts to go home. Some employees even come back to
work wearing the same unwashed clothes as the previous day.
Too many employees are calling in sick, and many of them give
weak reasons for their tardiness.
There is also a sense that employees and nurses dominate other
employees in similar positions. In meetings and conference calls
some employees are always quiet and never participate. You
notice that people with families tend to gather and talk quietly
on breaks. The new mothers working for the hospital have to
use bathrooms to pump breast milk for their infants and the
refrigerators do not work well. Looking at the financial
statements of the hospital, you realize that the hospital expenses
are higher than the industry standard, and it makes losses year
after year.
Note
: You may create and / or make all necessary assumptions
needed for the completion of this assignment.
Write a four to six (4-6) page paper in which you:
Investigate the major demotivational factors at Kaluyu
Memorial Hospital. Assess the level of impact that the
identified factors could have on specific areas of service and
business if the administration does not address the situation.
Support your response with at least two (2) examples of the
potential negative impact of the identified demotivational
factors on the hospital.
Choose Maslow’s, Herzberg’s, or McClelland’s model of
motivation, and argue the primary reasons why it is applicable
to the Kaluyu Memorial Hospital scenario.
Formulate a communication system that will have the greatest
impact on improving the situation, and specify the major
reasons why your system will influence the employee behaviors
for the better. Justify your response.
Use four (4) recent (within the last five [5] years) quality
academic resources in this assignment.
Note
: Wikipedia and other websites do not qualify as quality
academic resources.
Your assignment must follow these formatting requirements:
Be typed, double spaced, using Times New Roman font (size
12), with one-inch margins on all sides; citations and references

Include a cover page containing the title of the assignment, the
student’s name, the professor’s name, the course title, and the
date. The cover page and the reference page are not included in
