CULTURE…A JOURNEY TO DIFFERENT: Advanced Home Care’s Customer Care Center The journey to create a new culture in the Customer Care Center at Advanced Home Care stemmed from two pieces of information that in the end required a needs assessment to be completed. The turnover rate in the department was more than 40% and the number of patient event/concern forms for employees in the department was extraordinarily excessive. The decision to conduct a needs assessment was made because the purpose of a needs assessment is to “determine the difference between current and desired states” (Click4ut unitar learning and training wiki. (n.d.). Needs Assessment). It was the hope that in doing a needs assessment there would be data that helped to …show more content…
Data was gathered through anonymous surveys, one on one interviews with staff, as well as observation of team interaction in the team area. The anonymous surveys that included both Likert scale questions and open ended questions were administered through Survey Monkey. One on one interviews were conducted by the director of the department with the whole CCC team. Every interview covered the exact same questions. Formal observations using a formal observation sheet/record were conducted by the CCC leadership team. There was also a review of patient event/concern forms to consider trends in lack of education or accountability or process clarity. The CCC leadership also conducted blind call listening/monitoring to get a view of how calls were sounding as it relates to how callers perceive the staff (organization). After the needs assessment was complete, the CCC leadership was gathered to discuss the findings. The findings revealed a team who perceived a lack of leadership support not only internal (from the CCC leaders) but externally (from other leaders), it showed the need for a complete change of environment as the team atmosphere was toxic with mediocrity and apathy, the team felt helpless and hopeless, and the interaction between departments was strained at best. The needs assessment fueled the writing of program goals, learning objectives, and informed what and how to evaluate. How the Needs Assessment Informs the Evaluation Evaluation is the

Types and number of staff that this facility needs, and the rationale for this. How these needs differ in facilities that attend to different long-term care populations
The roles of the leadership in the clinics are essential to the success or unsuccessful implementation of change. The attitude of the leadership carries weight on how well the rest of the staff receives the change. Leaders on the clinic level have to accept changes whether good or bad and expect staff to challenge them. Leaders have to be strong and accept the change themselves and to support upper management. There are problems dealing with changes when issues arise between created civilian and military personnel. These issues are not easily dealt with and when changes are ensuing within a facility this causes undue stress within the organization. This is one reason that leadership needs to bring forth and implement changes within an organization as all one team because staff is well suited at picking up any rift

I attended an Arizona Health Care Association (AZHCA) regulatory and quality meeting. The AZHCA is a non-profit professional association of skilled nursing facilities (SNF), assisted living centers (ALF), and businesses that represent the profession of long term care. It was formed to promote standards and ethics in the profession of long term health care, and to advocate quality care for nursing facility and assisted living residents. Their goal is to strengthen the ability of its member facilities to deliver quality care to meet the needs of Arizona’s elderly and disabled residents. They do this by working closely with federal and state agencies and community partners to develop, amend, and implement reasonable legislation, regulatory policies, and standards of care.
Our elderly population is living longer than ever before and not all of them are entering into a nursing home. They are choosing to stay in their own home or their caregiver is choosing it for them. Some caregivers are choosing to move their ageing love one in the home with them. Whatever the case may be, there is an increased need for some type of home health as it applies to the elderly population. “Medicare will pay the full cost of professional help only if the physician

Should Juveniles be waived to adult court Philosophy 14 Nov 98 Should juveniles be waived to adult court. There has been tension between teens (pre-teens) and adults for thousands of years, and the question how to deal with the youth of a culture, in a punishment sense, has been with us for just as long. Socrates, for example, stated that "children show little respect for there elders." Since Socrates time largely due to the spread of guns and drugs, younger and younger children are committing violent crimes. Children that have special needs or have committed a criminal act have been subject to state protection since, 1838. The first juvenile court was established in Chicago in 1890. The assumption, that was made
Fixing problems that face health care in many health facilities demand a system wide set of solutions. The systems used in these facilities must be assessed and redesigned to identify factors that will aid in the achievement of the set goals. The enormous task of achieving the goals should be undertaken collaboratively by all the key stakeholders, who include, health care professionals, planners and policy makers, administrators, payers, and patients and their families. These partnerships must begin with a common understanding of the problems together with a shared commitment to cooperate and work together to eliminate the problems. With this knowledge, therefore, an action plan for redesigning the health care system can be developed and later implemented. For a successful health care service to be realized, there are various factors which should be employed and which are not found in the traditional business setting. These include unique economic processes, proper regulatory requirements and the perfect quality indicators. This creates a need for every leader within the healthcare industry to create or develop unique skill sets that will harmonize both organizational leadership and the inter-professional team development. It is, therefore, important to understand the comprehensive approach to the management of patient care and also how the concepts of team development and organizational leadership support healthcare leaders in creation of a patient-centric
There are two possible conceptions of legal official in Fuller’s account: the broad and the narrow conceptions. Both conceptions of legal official share the view that the legal officials should: (i) see themselves as the legal members within the legal system (ii) contribute in creating and in administrating the system of general rules (iii) constraint their law-jobs under the idea of ‘role morality’ to keep the law’s integrity in virtue of the maintain of human interactions, the general rules, the rule of law, and the fidelity of law. Both conceptions of legal official, however, differ in the scope of membership and the degree of morality performance. On the on hand, the broad conception of legal official
