The availability of manpower or suitably qualified staff is an important factor in the recruitment process and overall approach to talent planning. If the company has a demand for more professionals / specialised staff and there is limited supply in the market, then the company may have to depend upon internal sources by providing them special training and development programs. This will in turn impact on retention for the company. The company may want to have a more detailed retention policy if they have to invest heavily in staff.

This week I have fully grasp the work that goes into being an RN, case manager and what it entails to fully review a patients’ stay at the hospital in order to discharge them in the most effective and efficient way. I understand the need for these professionals in the healthcare field, not only in the hospital setting, but in skilled nursing facilities as well, one reason being is that I believe someone has to advocate and review the patients’ needs before they are sent home. Just like last week I was able to sit in on rounds and observe a great deal of the doctor and case manager dynamic and how important it is for both to know the patient as much possible. Sitting in rounds every morning makes me realize how hard it is to make decisions for another

I work closely with other employees and Partner of the firm. All questions raised by employees on the files regarding the accounting and tax are answered by myself.

Chapter one started off with an interesting case about a married couple, who are doctors and decided to work within the same hospital. Soon after they started to work there, their marriage started to suffer and in the end they decided to get a divorce. Mr. Whittamore decided that he was going to leave the hospital and was thinking about opening his own clinic, even though it was against his contract.

1. A second contribution of the Aggarwal and McGill, (2012), research is to recommend the procedure by which automatic behavior significances from anthropomorphized brand primes, and it is a motivational process. Clients of popular products want to reach the main characteristics or attribute linked to the brand. Most Apple or Disney patrons would like to be imaginative, creative, and popular like these brands (Aggarwal and McGill, 2012).

The key to the success of any business is the strength of its staff or work force. However, to remain economical, a company's work force must be able to increase efficiency, lower staffing costs, reduce turnover and provide long term growth for the company. In order to achieve all of these goals, a company must have and implement a successful work force planning strategy. This can be difficult as many companies fail to see where there staffing short-comings lie, and therefore can not determine the best strategy for hiring, outsourcing and shifting staff positions. Since each company's staffing needs are different, a successful staffing strategy must have a broad enough outline to be applicable to any company while also being specific enough to accurately address that company's staffing needs. In 2001, Governor David Paterson, the New York State Department of Civil Service and the New York State Governor's Office of Employee Relations published a guide for work force planning for their state agencies titled Our Work Force Matters. This guide provides eight steps for the planning processes along with several strategies and

Before we can begin the staffing plan process, we must first answer a few questions in order to find what it is we are looking for. For example, how much time do we want the individual to dedicate to the job? Do we want full-time, or part-time employees? What is the length of service that we are
