Let's Take a Trip: Organizational Analysis

An organizational analysis is an important tool to become familiar with how medical businesses and organizations are able to meet standards of care, provide services for the community and provide employment to health care providers. There are many different aspects to evaluate in an organizational analysis. This paper will describe these many aspects and apply the categories to the University Medical Center (UMC) as the organization being analyzed.

The seven organizational approaches to studying the human body include: body plans and directions, body cavities, quadrants and regions, anatomy and physiology, microscopic-to-macroscopic, body systems, and medical specialty. The body planes and directions approach is the division of the body into sections from front to back, right and left, top and bottom, along with the movement toward or away from the body planes. The Coronal Plane or frontal plane is a vertical plane that divides the body into front and back sections.

The Institute of Medicine (IOM) introduced five core competencies for healthcare professionals, to improve the United States healthcare system: provide patient-centered care, work in interdisciplinary teams, employ evidence-based practice, apply quality improvement, and utilize informatics (Institute of Medicine of the National Academies, 2003).

The organization need to revamp their current charting system, in order to improve patient care.

The Student Organizational Fair at SUNY Potsdam is essentially where a=organization clubs at Potsdam put up tables and students would walk around and learn more about the clubs. This week I decided to check out the student organizational fair to see if there was any clubs that I would be interested in. I didn’t expect too much out of it in all honesty but I’m glad that I checked it out. There is one club in particular that I will definitely join and I wouldn’t have known about it if it wasn’t for this fair.

I will be talking about my current job as a Child Protective Investigator (CPI) also known as Child Protective Services (or CPS). This is the governmental agency that is tasked with investigating child abuse or neglect. The primary concern of a CPI is the safety of the child; they do this by assessing the risk involved. By weighing that risk the CPI has to make the decision rather to remove the children or child from the home or place services within the home that will allow

For example, how would you like to screw lids on jars one day after another, as you might have done many decades ago if you worked in company that made and sold jellies and jams? When this happens, negative outcomes result, including decreased job satisfaction and organizational commitment, increased absenteeism, and turnover.

My interest in the Organizational Studies program initially started by talking with Briggs King, a former teammate and OS participant. From asking him what his most valuable experience at Denison was, I learned about his time in the OS program. After listening to him go on and on about all he gained from the experience, I decided to research it on my own and see what the program truly had to offer. Basically, I saw an opportunity that allowed students to learn along side fellow students through the teaching of alumni who were in the same situation or are business leaders in their field. Since I am a junior and have limited time here at Denison, I feel that there is no better way to get the most out of my experience at this school than through

One professional organization I will join in a near future is the CCNA (Cisco Certified Network Associate) which in an IT certification for computer network professionals very well-known and respected within the IT world. It provides deep knowledge and expertise on Cisco routers and switches that pretty much dominate the market. It is indeed very difficult and a long course, it divided in 2 different sections or exams, ICND1 (entry level network tech also known as CCENT) and ICND2. Obtaining these certifications doesn’t mean you are done after you pass the test, you will need to be rested every 3 years to maintain the license or keep advance to higher certifications within

Bay State Medical Center’s mission statement is to improve the health of the people in our communities every day with quality and compassion.

When looking back at all of the weekly written assignments there are a few things I should note. There were some questions like naming the ‘theories of rationality’ in the written assignments which I did not yet fully grasp at the moment of answering the questions. When I look back at the first assignment I now understand what was asked of me. To some degree, this also applies to some of the other exercises. What I have noticed is that my writing skills have improved hugely thanks to the Organization Theory course, which can be seen in the difference in quality between my first assignment and this final essay.
