To remain viable, health care organizations need leaders who can meet financial targets by effectively leading their teams. Whether you work for a nonprofit, for-profit, or government facility, financial goals and targets will influence your leadership priorities. These internal benchmarks, when considered with respect to finite, available resources, create leadership challenges for maintaining fiscal and clinical balance. You may recall a quote from Irene Krause, who started the idea of "No Margin, No Mission." So, regardless of what your corporate structure might be, all leaders must contribute towards the financial health and profit margin of the organization.

HCM 415 Final Project Guidelines and Rubric
Overview
Strategic planning is the process or mechanism used by healthcare organizations to analyze new regulations, policies, and procedures and to reconsider their
mission, vision, and values. Strategic planning can also be the vehicle that healthcare organizations use to revamp themselves and offer new products and
services. The healthcare manager plays an important role in analyzing and executing the organizational strategic planning. Understanding the key principles and
competencies associated with strategic planning, and how these principles and competencies are applied in day-to-day hospital operations, is critical for
healthcare managers.
This final project will provide you the opportunity to analyze strategic planning within a healthcare organization, including identification of stakeholders and the
role they serve in the process and the alignment between strategic planning and the organization’s mission and vision. You will also be asked for
recommendations on the best course of action for the healthcare manager to make in terms of strategic planning around an issue.
This assessment addresses the following course outcomes:
Analyze the role of healthcare managers in developing and managing the strategic planning process
Assess the impact of current healthcare policies on strategic planning processes in the U.S. healthcare system
Employ strategic planning tools in determining the impact of external forces on the delivery of care in the U.S. healthcare system
Assess how key stakeholders influence and drive strategic planning changes within healthcare organizations
Determine the extent to which strategic planning aligns with organizational missions and visions within healthcare settings
Prompt
For your final project, you will select a case study from those provided to analyze and make subsequent recommendations to the healthcare manager on the
best course of action with regard to policy and strategic planning.
Specifically, the following critical elements must be addressed:
I. Overview: Provide a brief summary of the case study you selected. Be sure to include the organization’s mission and vision for reference.
II. Situational Analysis
A. Based on its mission or vision statements, what can you discern about the organization’s approach to strategic planning? Be sure to provide
specific examples to justify your response.
B. What is the prevailing issue in question in the case study you selected?

· Write an executive summary, 4-5 pages in length, of existing outcome measures related to a performance issue uncovered in your gap analysis that you intend to address.
Introduction
Note: Each assessment in this course builds on the work you completed in the previous assessment. Therefore, you must complete the assessments in this course in the order in which they are presented.
As a nurse leader, you must be able to access, identify, and describe outcome measures as they relate to safety and quality problems in your organization.
This assessment provides an opportunity to examine existing outcome measures, assess their strategic value, and present your findings to executive leaders in a manner that will help you gain their support.
Quality and safety are everyone's responsibility as a team of interprofessional care delivery partners. Together we develop policies that support quality and safe care delivery. As part of the interprofessional team, nurses are leaders in care and thus are responsible and accountable for leading and providing safe quality care.
Health care delivery is structured around evidenced-based information. Quality is defined by exploring proven, evidenced-based information. After reviewing and defining evidenced-based information, the interprofessional team applies this knowledge to assess the organization's or the practice setting's ability to provide evidenced-based care delivery. When a gap in care is identified, it is important to propose an evidenced-based change and to execute a plan for improved care.
Your summary of relevant outcome measures is based on your findings from the quality and safety gap analysis you completed in the previous assessment.
Preparation
Your analysis of the gap between current and desired performance was the first step toward improving outcomes. You now have the information you need to move forward with proposed changes. Your next step is to focus on existing outcome measures and their relationship to the systemic problem you are addressing. For this assessment, you have been asked to draft a summary of existing outcome measures for your organization's executive team to raise awareness of the problem and the strategic value of existing measures.

Develop a 5- to 6-slide PowerPoint presentation for a staff meet.docxbradburgess22840
Develop a 5- to 6-slide PowerPoint presentation for a staff meeting that addresses the following:
Identify your selected transition of care. ------" Transitions of care” refer to the movement of patients between health care practitioners, settings, and home as their condition and care need change. For example, a patient might receive care from a primary care physician or specialist in an outpatient setting, then transition to a hospital physician and nursing team during an inpatient admission before moving on to yet another care team at a skilled nursing facility. Finally, the patient might return home, where he or she may receive care from a visiting nurse or support from a family member or friend.
Explain how you, as a nurse leader, along with your healthcare team, would apply systems thinking when providing a transition of care aligned with the IHI Quadruple Aim framework in order to improve it. Explain what the fourth aim in your strategy would be and why.
These are the four areas:
Experience of care
Population health
Per capita cost
Care team well-being
Describe the key stakeholders that might be involved in this transition of care and how you would engage and influence them to improve the transition of care processes.
Explain how systems thinking would inform your improvement plan for your transition of care.

CONTEXT:
As a master's-prepared nurse, you have a valuable viewpoint and voice with which to advocate for policy developments. As a nurse leader and health care practitioner, often on the front lines of helping individuals and populations, you are able to articulate and advocate for the patient more than any other professional group in health care. This is especially true of populations that may be underserved, underrepresented, or are otherwise lacking a voice. By advocating for and developing policies, you are able to help drive improvements in outcomes for specific populations. The policies you advocate for could be internal ones (just within a specific department or health care setting) that ensure quality care and compliance. Or they could be external policies (local, st.

Despite the literature supporting technology use in schools as ben.docxbradburgess22840
Despite the literature supporting technology use in schools as beneficial for students, and despite the wide use of social technology, schools continue to be slow to change its integration in the classroom (Livingstone, 2012). It is imperative that teachers increase their use of technology in the classroom in order to prepare our K-12 students referred to as "digital natives," for the 21st century. Though many schools have technology available for use (Alger & Kopcha, 2008), barriers exist in incorporating technology into lesson plans, namely teacher reluctance (Keengwe, Onchwari, & Wachira, 2008). Teachers' hesitation in using technology more frequently is due to a number of factors, such as lack of time to learn new technology and incorporate it into lesson plans, beliefs around using technology in instruction, availability of working technology and technical support, comprehensive professional development, and a culture that promotes using new technology, self-efficacy, and teaching methods (Alger & Kopcha, 2008).
Literature Review
Self-Efficacy toward Technology
According to Bandura (1986) individuals possess a self-system that determines how much effort people will expend on any activity. Bandura also asserts that self-efficacy beliefs may be a strong predictor of related performance. Studies have shown a positive correlation between self-efficacy in technology and technology ability (Anderson & Maninger, 2007; Anderson, Grouulx, & Maninger, 2011). According to the technology acceptance model introduced by Davis (1989), there is a correlation between users' perceived ease of use and predicted adoption of technology. In his study investigating Moodles, Yeou (2016) found self-efficacy to be a critical factor in undergraduates' use of the technology tool. In a similar study investigating pre-service teachers, Albion (2001) found that self-efficacy was the most significant factor in predicting technology use. Pre-service and in-service teachers who possess high self-efficacy in regard to technology are more apt to use technology in the classroom because they are more confident in their ability. In their study investigating teachers' use of technology, Holden and Rada (2011) found that self-efficacy directly influenced individuals' ease of use and usability of technology.
Need for Technology Integration
With the adoption of the National Education Technology Plan (NETP), providing access to technology is no longer sufficient; the NETP stresses that schools are expected to ensure "all students understand how to use technologies as a tool to engage in creative, productive, lifelong learning" (p. 16 Herold, 2016). A key element in the plan is the need to move from passive to active use of technology. Often referred to as the "digital use and divide," a gap exists between learners who are using technology in active, creative ways to support their learning and those who predominantly use technology for passive content consumption.

Note: You are strongly encouraged to complete the assessments in this course in the order
To remain viable, health care organizations need leaders who can meet financial targets by effectively leading their teams. Whether you work for a nonprofit, for-profit, or government facility, financial goals and targets will influence your leadership priorities. These internal benchmarks, when considered with respect to finite, available resources, create leadership challenges for maintaining fiscal and clinical balance. You may recall a quote from Irene Krause, who started the idea of "No Margin, No Mission." So, regardless of what your corporate structure might be, all leaders must contribute towards the financial health and profit margin of the organization.
By successfully completing this assessment, you will demonstrate your proficiency in the following course competencies and assessment criteria:
· Competency 3: Analyze characteristics of effective team leadership. (L5.4, L26.5, L1.4)

HCM 415 Final Project Guidelines and Rubric
Overview
Strategic planning is the process or mechanism used by healthcare organizations to analyze new regulations, policies, and procedures and to reconsider their
mission, vision, and values. Strategic planning can also be the vehicle that healthcare organizations use to revamp themselves and offer new products and
services. The healthcare manager plays an important role in analyzing and executing the organizational strategic planning. Understanding the key principles and
competencies associated with strategic planning, and how these principles and competencies are applied in day-to-day hospital operations, is critical for
healthcare managers.
This final project will provide you the opportunity to analyze strategic planning within a healthcare organization, including identification of stakeholders and the
role they serve in the process and the alignment between strategic planning and the organization’s mission and vision. You will also be asked for
recommendations on the best course of action for the healthcare manager to make in terms of strategic planning around an issue.
This assessment addresses the following course outcomes:
Analyze the role of healthcare managers in developing and managing the strategic planning process
Assess the impact of current healthcare policies on strategic planning processes in the U.S. healthcare system
Employ strategic planning tools in determining the impact of external forces on the delivery of care in the U.S. healthcare system

· Write an executive summary, 4-5 pages in length, of existing outcome measures related to a performance issue uncovered in your gap analysis that you intend to address.
Introduction
Note: Each assessment in this course builds on the work you completed in the previous assessment. Therefore, you must complete the assessments in this course in the order in which they are presented.
As a nurse leader, you must be able to access, identify, and describe outcome measures as they relate to safety and quality problems in your organization.
This assessment provides an opportunity to examine existing outcome measures, assess their strategic value, and present your findings to executive leaders in a manner that will help you gain their support.
Quality and safety are everyone's responsibility as a team of interprofessional care delivery partners. Together we develop policies that support quality and safe care delivery. As part of the interprofessional team, nurses are leaders in care and thus are responsible and accountable for leading and providing safe quality care.
Health care delivery is structured around evidenced-based information. Quality is defined by exploring proven, evidenced-based information. After reviewing and defining evidenced-based information, the interprofessional team applies this knowledge to assess the organization's or the practice setting's ability to provide evidenced-based care delivery. When a gap in care is identified, it is important to propose an evidenced-based change and to execute a plan for improved care.
Your summary of relevant outcome measures is based on your findings from the quality and safety gap analysis you completed in the previous assessment.
Preparation
Your analysis of the gap between current and desired performance was the first step toward improving outcomes. You now have the information you need to move forward with proposed changes. Your next step is to focus on existing outcome measures and their relationship to the systemic problem you are addressing. For this assessment, you have been asked to draft a summary of existing outcome measures for your organization's executive team to raise awareness of the problem and the strategic value of existing measures.

For this assessment you will create a 2-4 page plan proposal for.docxtemplestewart19
For this assessment you will create a 2-4 page plan proposal for an interprofessional team to collaborate and work toward driving improvements in the organizational issue you identified in the second assessment.
The health care industry is always striving to improve patient outcomes and attain organizational goals. Nurses can play a critical role in achieving these goals; one way to encourage nurse participation in larger organizational efforts is to create a culture of ownership and shared responsibility (Berkow et al., 2012). Participation in interdisciplinary teams can also offer nurses opportunities to share their expertise and leadership skills, fostering a sense of ownership and collegiality.
You are encouraged to complete the Budgeting for Nurses activity before you develop the plan proposal. The activity consists of seven questions that will allow you the opportunity to check your knowledge of budgeting basics and as well as the value of financial resource management. The information gained from completing this formative will promote success with the Interdisciplinary Plan Proposal. Completing this activity also demonstrates your engagement in the course, requires just a few minutes of your time, and is not graded.

Develop a 5- to 6-slide PowerPoint presentation for a staff meet.docxbradburgess22840
Develop a 5- to 6-slide PowerPoint presentation for a staff meeting that addresses the following:
Identify your selected transition of care. ------" Transitions of care” refer to the movement of patients between health care practitioners, settings, and home as their condition and care need change. For example, a patient might receive care from a primary care physician or specialist in an outpatient setting, then transition to a hospital physician and nursing team during an inpatient admission before moving on to yet another care team at a skilled nursing facility. Finally, the patient might return home, where he or she may receive care from a visiting nurse or support from a family member or friend.
Explain how you, as a nurse leader, along with your healthcare team, would apply systems thinking when providing a transition of care aligned with the IHI Quadruple Aim framework in order to improve it. Explain what the fourth aim in your strategy would be and why.
These are the four areas:
Experience of care
Population health
Per capita cost
Care team well-being
Describe the key stakeholders that might be involved in this transition of care and how you would engage and influence them to improve the transition of care processes.
Explain how systems thinking would inform your improvement plan for your transition of care.

CONTEXT:
As a master's-prepared nurse, you have a valuable viewpoint and voice with which to advocate for policy developments. As a nurse leader and health care practitioner, often on the front lines of helping individuals and populations, you are able to articulate and advocate for the patient more than any other professional group in health care. This is especially true of populations that may be underserved, underrepresented, or are otherwise lacking a voice. By advocating for and developing policies, you are able to help drive improvements in outcomes for specific populations. The policies you advocate for could be internal ones (just within a specific department or health care setting) that ensure quality care and compliance. Or they could be external policies (local, st.

Despite the literature supporting technology use in schools as ben.docxbradburgess22840
Despite the literature supporting technology use in schools as beneficial for students, and despite the wide use of social technology, schools continue to be slow to change its integration in the classroom (Livingstone, 2012). It is imperative that teachers increase their use of technology in the classroom in order to prepare our K-12 students referred to as "digital natives," for the 21st century. Though many schools have technology available for use (Alger & Kopcha, 2008), barriers exist in incorporating technology into lesson plans, namely teacher reluctance (Keengwe, Onchwari, & Wachira, 2008). Teachers' hesitation in using technology more frequently is due to a number of factors, such as lack of time to learn new technology and incorporate it into lesson plans, beliefs around using technology in instruction, availability of working technology and technical support, comprehensive professional development, and a culture that promotes using new technology, self-efficacy, and teaching methods (Alger & Kopcha, 2008).
Literature Review
Self-Efficacy toward Technology
According to Bandura (1986) individuals possess a self-system that determines how much effort people will expend on any activity. Bandura also asserts that self-efficacy beliefs may be a strong predictor of related performance. Studies have shown a positive correlation between self-efficacy in technology and technology ability (Anderson & Maninger, 2007; Anderson, Grouulx, & Maninger, 2011). According to the technology acceptance model introduced by Davis (1989), there is a correlation between users' perceived ease of use and predicted adoption of technology. In his study investigating Moodles, Yeou (2016) found self-efficacy to be a critical factor in undergraduates' use of the technology tool. In a similar study investigating pre-service teachers, Albion (2001) found that self-efficacy was the most significant factor in predicting technology use. Pre-service and in-service teachers who possess high self-efficacy in regard to technology are more apt to use technology in the classroom because they are more confident in their ability. In their study investigating teachers' use of technology, Holden and Rada (2011) found that self-efficacy directly influenced individuals' ease of use and usability of technology.
Need for Technology Integration
With the adoption of the National Education Technology Plan (NETP), providing access to technology is no longer sufficient; the NETP stresses that schools are expected to ensure "all students understand how to use technologies as a tool to engage in creative, productive, lifelong learning" (p. 16 Herold, 2016). A key element in the plan is the need to move from passive to active use of technology. Often referred to as the "digital use and divide," a gap exists between learners who are using technology in active, creative ways to support their learning and those who predominantly use technology for passive content consumption.

Description of theNationalMilitary Strategy2018.docxbradburgess22840
Description of the
National
Military
Strategy
2018
The Joint Staff
1
Overview
The 2018 National Military Strategy (NMS) provides the
Joint Force a framework for protecting and advancing U.S.
national interests. Pursuant to statute, it reflects a
comprehensive review conducted by the Chairman with the
other members of the Joint Chiefs of Staff and the unified
combatant commanders.
As an overarching military strategic framework, this
strategy implements the substantial body of policy and
strategy direction provided in the 2017 National Security
Strategy, the 2018 National Defense Strategy (NDS), the
Defense Planning Guidance (DPG), and other documents.
The 2018 NMS provides the Chairman’s military advice for
how the Joint Force implements the defense objectives in
the NDS and the direction from the President and the
Secretary of Defense.
The 2018 NMS also reflects lessons learned from
implementing global integration over the last two years. The
strategy articulates a continuum of strategic direction to
frame global integration into three strategy horizons to meet
the challenges of the existing and future security
environment. Force employment addresses planning, force
management, and decisionmaking to fulfill the defense
objectives of the NDS. Force development adapts functions,
capabilities, and concepts to improve the current Joint
Force. Force design innovates to enable the Joint Force to
do what it does differently to retain a competitive advantage
against any adversary.
The vision of the Joint Force articulated in the 2018 NMS is
a Joint Force capable of defending the homeland and
projecting power globally, now and into the future.
2
Strategic Approach
From its global perspective, the NMS premises an adaptive
and innovative Joint Force capable of employing its
capabilities seamlessly across multiple regions and all
domains -- continuing the transition from a regional to a
global mindset and approach.
This strategy
anchors its
approach against a
set of clearly
identified security
trends outlined in
the NDS (see inset).
These trends,
especially those
posed by the
reemergence of
great power
competition with China and Russia, represent the most
difficult challenges facing the Joint Force. However, the full
scope of global integration must recognize uncertainty and
be vigilant for emerging threats to the security and interests
of the United States, its allies and partners. In a security
environment where the homeland is no longer a sanctuary
and every operating domain is contested, competitors and
adversaries will continue to operate across geographic
regions and span multiple domains to offset or erode Joint
Force advantages.
To achieve military advantage over competitors and
adversaries, the NMS introduces the notion of joint
combined arms, defined as the conduct of operational art
through the integration of joint capabilities.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202

Assessment Instructions
Note:
You will use your care setting environmental analysis as the
basis for developing your strategic plan in this assessment.
6. Preparation
The feedback you received on your care setting environmental
analysis has been positive. Consequently, you have been asked
to select one of the potential improvement projects you noted in
your analysis and create a full, 5–10-year strategic plan to
achieve the desired quality and safety improvement outcomes.
You will develop your strategic plan, using either an AI
approach (addressing the design stage), or by building on your
SWOT analysis and applying a strategic planning model of your
choice.
How you structure your plan should be based on whether you
are taking an appreciative inquiry approach or using a specific
strategic planning model. Regardless of the approach you
choose, the requester of the plan has asked that you address the
key points outlined below in the strategic plan requirements. In
addition, your plan should be 5–8 pages in length.
Note:
Remember, you can submit all, or a portion, of your draft plan
to Smarthinking for feedback before you submit the final
version for this assessment. However, be mindful of the
turnaround time for receiving feedback, if you plan on using
this free service.
Requirements
Note:
The requirements outlined below correspond to the grading
criteria in the scoring guide, so at a minimum, be sure to
address each point. In addition, you are encouraged to review
the performance level descriptions for each criterion to see how
your work will be assessed.
