1. For a hospital to operate efficiently and effectively, the three important influences in its governance, medical staff, board of trustees, and administration, must work together in reasonable harmony. What factors might contribute to tensions among these groups? 2. As the nursing profession has expanded through advanced degrees, specialization, and clinical practice, nurses’ salaries and responsibilities have also increased. Now, hospitals substitute non-nurses for nurses to perform all but the most technical tasks. What are the implications for the nursing profession? Have nurses lost their traditional role of hands-on patient care and, if so, is that to their advantage or disadvantage? 3. The traditional management style of hospitals has been hierarchical and internally focused. What are three important challenges that face hospitals to accommodate new payer and consumer expectations? 4. The availability of hospital insurance removed an important cost constraint from hospital services and charges. What were some positive and negative consequences of that development? 5. The organization and practices of modern hospitals reflect the promotion of specialization and sub-specialization by academic health centers. What were the advantages and disadvantages to patients of increasing the number of physicians who limit their activities to narrower fields of practice? 6. With significant oversupply of hospital beds in the U.S. what is the rationale for taxpayer support of the separate and costly hospital system of the Department of Veterans Affairs? ...

A prominent nursing center in the mid-size East South Central city in the South has come under the fire due to a major challenge of shortage in the nursing staff. An increase in the health care expenses led to a temporary reduction in the staff’s earning that led them to decrease in the number of nurses. Decreasing the nursing staff is the only logical way to combat the increased health costs, however, it partly kills the working enthusiasm of the staff. But, the decreased staff is birthing more problems, as there is an array of patients that come to this center for care and cure and the decreased number of nurses cannot put up with all of them.

Running head: EMPLOYEE RECRUITMENT AND RETENTION 1 EMPLOYEE RECRUITMENT AND RETENTION 4 Employee Recruitment and Retention Name: Institution: Date: The contemporary healthcare sector faces many dynamics that present challenges and opportunities. Advancement in technology, globalization, and competition in the industry are among the components that have significantly altered the manner providers engage in their daily activities. Again, the calls for better and quality services provision have led to innovation-led approaches. Another important challenge facing the sector is the shortage of clinical staff. The report looks into the recruitment and retention challenges in the health sector. In particular, the discussion will evaluate the situation at Chatuge Regional Hospital in North Georgia. The facility is over 54 years old – currently offering emergency, trauma, and heart services. There is a great need for regular training and motivation of clinical staff to foster efficiency and productivity in the provision of health services. Chatuge Hospital, like other facilities, experience challenges in recruitment and retention of experienced health professionals. Hospital administrators should continuously work on initiatives such as talent development and motivation to ensure the retention of staff and the provision of quality services. Recruitment and retention of health professionals remain a significant concern in the quest to ensure patient satisfaction and access to quality services. The trend has seen most hospitals experience high staff turnover and operational costs. Leadership strategies in an organization impact the productivity, motivation, and retention of staff (Kroezen et al., 2015). Hospital administrators need to work on elaborate human resources initiatives that capture needs and interests. The issues highlighted are essential in not only improving service provision but also enhance the satisfaction and retention of clinical staff. Several challenges hamper the process of the improvement of the health facilities and professionals. Inadequate remuneration of the nurses erodes the image of the nursing profession. In the years gone, most people respected the nursing field due to the professionalism exuded by the personnel. However, the remuneration factor erodes the image of the profession in that the nurses earn low wages while they invest significantly in training and performance of their respective jobs (Kroezen et al., 2015). The nurses get de-motivated when working in a less conducive environment. Also, the challenges highlighted above have effects on patient safety and satisfaction. The issue undermines the reputation of a health facility; thereby, leading to low-level sustainability of the business. Healthcare care providers need to take steps that will lead to the formulation of strategies that appreciates diversity and universality in the healthcare sector. The facility needs to train the clinical staff on the basic ...

Academic medical centers were formed by the union of medical schools through affiliations with hospitals that provided clinical experience for medical students. These affiliations were later broadened into academic health centers. Describe the components of the academic health centers and their significance to the evolution of the university-based health professional education complex. 3. The health care delivery system now with ACA mandates, places increased emphasis on maintaining wellness and on promoting disease avoidance through healthy behaviors and lifestyles. What are some challenges this new orientation poses for our existing system of medical education and training? 4. In what ways did physicians’ relationships with hospitals change as a result of health care industry reforms? Discuss the consequences of these changes for physicians’ roles and responsibilities in relationship to hospitals. 5. The dispute over exposing the comparative performance of physicians on a wide spectrum of variables has been resolved in favor of the consumers of health care with requirements such as “Physician Compare.” A number of states have passed legislation that gives the public access to physician information, including disciplinary records, malpractice actions, and whether a physician has lost hospital privileges. Are these fair and balanced bases on which consumers should make decisions about their choice of physicians? 6. Given the new role of hospitalists in patient care, identify some issues raised by this new brand of physician for the primary physician and patient. ...

Running head: ASHFORD GENERAL HOSPITAL PROPOSAL 1 ASHFORD GENERAL HOSPITAL PROPOSAL 2 I. INTRODUCTION A. Problem: Ashford General Hospital’s Response to Nurse Staffing Shortage 1. The shortage in the number of nurses is one of the biggest problems that many hospitals in America, including Ashford General Hospital, encounter. 2. About sixty-eight percent of the total number of nursing staff is facing retirement, for they are over the age of 45. 3. Nurses’ retention rate in this hospital is sixty-one percent, lower than the nationwide retention rate of sixty-five percent. B. Scope of the problem 1. Many of the nurses find the job to be more physically demanding. They, therefore, also feel burnt-out emotionally. 2. To fill personal shifts and also try to meet the immediate staffing needs that arise from medical leaves and vacations for staff, the hospital has utilized both traveling and per diem nurses. These nurses are contracted on a short-term basis. The process has, therefore, risen hiring costs, and lowered the score on the surveys on patient satisfaction. II. SOLUTIONS A. Short-Term Strategies 1. Utilizing Temporary Staff i.) The hospital should continue with the use of traveling and per diem nurses. Though this approach is expensive to the organization, these nurses help to fill the gaps arising from medical leaves and vacations of employees (Conway & ASHFORD GENERAL HOSPITAL PROPOSAL 3 McMillan, 2007). We can rely on this strategy especially when the shortage is very severe. ii.) We can also employ the use of float pools or internal staffing agencies as a short-term strategy to curb this shortage (Bish, Kenney & Nay, 2012). Though the internal agency nurses are paid a package bigger than the staff nurses, the amount is less than that given to external agency nurses. Therefore, this approach is cost effective. 2. Financial Benefits and Salary Increment i.) The Hospital can also shift on offering competitive salaries to aid in recruiting and retaining nurses in a high-demand environment. The strategy not only targets new recruits but also wage increase for all the nursing staff across the board. It is also a critical approach when targeting long-term solutions since more people will be attracted to the nursing profession, and most especially to this organization. ii.) Ashford General Hospital can also implement the use of retention, referral, or sign-on bonuses or even some combination of the rewards. It helps to encourage the staff to join or remain in the organization. iii.) We can also begin using self and flexible scheduling programs. Money alone cannot make employees or nurses comfortable and happy. Their demands keep changing now and then, and one of the new demands is to balance between home and work life. Their programs should be made flexible in such a way that a nurse can freely and easily balance these t ...

Dead Men's Path by China Achebe delves into the implications of making choices. Achebe uses symbolism to bring home his views on the repercussions that choices people make can have on their lives. Achebe presents a society that is torn apart in two divides: between the tradition on one hand and modernity on the other hand. The society is not willing to welcome the new progressive thoughts that have been brought by the missionaries(Achebe, 2009). Through the use of symbolism, Achebe makes a cataclysmic flowing story that has much deeper imnsights than the superficial representations in words. What are some of the dangers of disregarding the opinions that is supported by majority in the society? Achebe’s Dead Men's Path answers this question using symbolic presentations.

Amid the breeding season, marsh frogs will let out boisterous “chucks” to pull in a mate.Florida bog frogs occupy numerous regions including shallow, acidic spring leaks; boggy floods of streams; .The most risk to the Florida marsh frog is the degradation of its habitat. Bog frogs flourish best in early succession vegetation. 2.The Florida mouse is a species of rodent in the family Cricetidae. It is the only species in the genus Podomys, which is the single mammal genus endemic to Florida. I like this mouse because it reminds me of Mickey Mouse created by Walt Disney, and redirect me to its amusement parks in Orlando, Florida. This mouse also caught my attention because it looks so funny and different from the rest of the mice. The Florida mouse is found only in a limited area in central peninsular Florida and one small area in the Florida panhandle. The mouse inhabits some of Florida's hottest and driest regions in the high pinelands, sandhills, flatlands, and coastal scrub. They average between 5 to 8 inches long, and their tails are between 2 to 3.5 inches long, weighing between 1/2 ounce to 1 ounce. The Florida mouse has soft silky fur that is brown or brownish-orange in color. Its underparts are white. Their ears are large and furless. Their tails are long, and their back paws are large and have 5 pads. Their teeth are sharp, and they use them for gnawing. The Florida mouse is nocturnal and is active throughout the year except on unusually cold nights. The mouse can climb but is primarily a terrestrial species. They communicate by emitting high pitched squeals, and when they are excited, they thump the ground with their front paws producing a drumming sound. The Florida mouse also has a distinctive odor, almost like a skunk. A baby of a Florida mouse is called a pinkie, kitten, or pup. The females are called doe and males buck. A Florida mouse group is called a nest, colony, harvest, horde, or mischief. The Florida mouse is an omnivore, and its diet consists of acorns when available, insects, seeds, nuts, fungi, crickets, ticks, fruit, berries, and other plant material and vertebrates. A 1987 report indicates the mouse feeds on engorged ticks ( Ornithodorus turicata americanus ) that parasitize gopher frogs ( Rana areolata ) and gopher tortoises. According to the official State of Florida's Endangered and Threatened Species List of wildlife, the Florida mouse is considered as State Species of Special Conce.

The Miami blue was thought extinct until it was rediscovered in 1999 . In spite of many changes the Bahia Honda populace held on until 2010, when it vanished, maybe due to a combination of dry spell, cold temperatures, and being eaten by non-native green iguanas. They was rediscovered in Key West National Natural life Asylum in 2006. The are one of Florida most endangered species. I love butterflies because they're colorful with wings of distinctive patterns. I love how they change from caterpillars to cocoons to butterflies. Its so relate able to life , always changing and evolving . Its astonishing that the butterfly emerges from the unpleasant small caterpillar and shapes a cocoon and after that rises as a butterfly 2.Six families of dragonflies exist in Florida with most found near ponds and other freshwater sources. Dragonflies feature large eyes that make up most of their head and a muscular body that helps the insects use their large wings to fly. Sometimes you'll see dragonflies hovering near blacktop parking lots, but for the most part, the insects stay near water except when they look for a mate. They then return to the water to breed and deposit eggs. Adult dragonflies will eat any insect as long as they can catch it. Dragonfly nymphs live in the water, and they usually wait on aquatic vegetation. From the nymph stage to the adult stage, the dragonfly has a significant, positive ecological impact. Dragonfly eggs are laid and hatched in or near water, so their lives impact both water and land ecosystems. Once hatched, dragonfly nymphs can breathe underwater, and they use a motion similar to jet propulsion to move through their environment. This enables them to eat harmful aquatic organisms such as mosquito larvae. The nymph will continue contributing to this ecosystem for one to five years before becoming a mature adult. The adult dragonfly has enormous compound eyes that are useful in searching for flying insects. While flying, it uses its six legs to scoop food out of the air. Clasping the prey in its front legs, it then eats the insect in flight. Dragonflies play ecological roles not only as predators but also as prey of birds, frogs, and other creatures. The presence of dragonflies indicates freshwater. One of the most useful dragonfly facts is that they reside low in the food chain, so a scientific study of their numbers and their health can reveal changes in water ecosystems more quickly than studying other animals or plants. Some national parks are beginning to use this species to survey and document the health of the park's water ecosystems. Since dragonflies eat mosquitoes and other insects, they help gardeners and outdoor enthusiasts. This also helps the environment because it allows humans to reduce the u.

A Transgenic animal is one that carries a foreign gene that has been deliberately inserted into its genome. The foreign gene are inserted into the germ line of the animal, so it can be transmitted to the progeny. Transgenic animals are animals that are genetically altered to have traits that mimic symptoms of specific human pathologies. They provide genetic model of various human disease which are important in understanding disease and development of new target.

1. For a hospital to operate efficiently and effectively, the thre.docx

1. 1. For a hospital to operate efficiently and effectively, the three important influences in its governance, medical staff, board of trustees, and administration, must work together in reasonable harmony. What factors might contribute to tensions among these groups? 2. As the nursing profession has expanded through advanced degrees, specialization, and clinical practice, nurses’ salaries and responsibilities have also increased. Now, hospitals substitute non-nurses for nurses to perform all but the most technical tasks. What are the implications for the nursing profession? Have nurses lost their traditional role of hands-on patient care and, if so, is that to their advantage or disadvantage? 3. The traditional management style of hospitals has been hierarchical and internally focused. What are three important challenges that face hospitals to accommodate new payer and consumer expectations? 4. The availability of hospital insurance removed an important cost constraint from hospital services and charges. What were some positive and negative consequences of that development? 5. The organization and practices of modern hospitals reflect the promotion of specialization and sub-specialization by academic health centers. What were the advantages and disadvantages to patients of increasing the number of physicians who limit their activities to narrower fields of practice? 6. With significant oversupply of hospital beds in the U.S. what is the rationale for taxpayer support of the separate and costly hospital system of the Department of Veterans Affairs?
