Hospitals have organizational structures that allows them to carry out their duties efficiently and successfully. What separates the organizational structure of a healthcare organization from a business, essentially that the hospital 's organization is chiefly founded on the amalgamation of medical and administrative staff (Carayon, et al., 2014). The organizational structure of the twenty-first century solutions in health care hospitals involves, both divisional and hierarchical structure. In the of the chain of command hierarchy, there are various levels of professional’s that fall under other levels within the facility, and each staff member is organized in regards to departments that are related to their (KSA’s) skills, attributes and job duties (Carayon, et al., 2014). Hospital organization philosophies is based on development of values and ethics, with the understanding on moral principles relating to human conduct. These systems are comprised with the processes in decision making and determining the best actions to consider between the difficult alternatives when pertaining to patient care.

The way we practice healthcare and healthcare organizations are changing due to the pressure to reduce costs, improve the quality of care and to meet rigorous guidelines. This change has forced health care professionals to examine we evaluate our overall performance. Paradise Hospital, Inc. has not had any service improvements since 1995. A physician named Avedis Donabedian (2005) proposed a model for assessing health care quality based on structures, processes, and outcomes. He defined structure as the environment in which health care is provided. This is known as the organizational characteristics such as the measurement of staffing ratios and the number of hospital beds. The process is described as the method by which health care is provided. This represents the communication and interaction seen between doctor and patient. The necessity for the tests and procedures performed. The outcome is defined as the consequence of the health care provided, was there a desirable or undesirable effect.

Quality measures are tools that help us measure or quantify healthcare processes, outcomes, patient outreach, and organizational structure and/or systems that are associated with the ability to provide high-quality health care and that relate to one or more quality goals for health care. These goals include: effective, safe, efficient, patient-centered, equitable, and timely care.

Quality is an important factor that affects an organization’s service delivery approach or underlying system of care. To achieve a different level of performance and improve quality, an organization’s system needs to change its own delivery system and key processes. The resources (inputs) and activities carried out are addressed together to ensure or improve quality of care. A health service delivery system can be small and simple, such as an immunization clinic or large and complex or a managed care organization. A health care delivery system consists of resources, activities, and results. Activities or processes within a healthcare organization contain focuses on what care is provided and how is done based on the location, time, and patients of the care delivery. Providing services that meet the needs and expectations of patients and their community, including system that affect patient access, care provision that is evidence-based, patient safety, support for patient engagement, coordination of care with other parts of the larger health care system, and cultural competence, including assessing health literacy of patients, patient-centered communication, and linguistically appropriate

For both criteria, outcomes include having the knowledge, skills, and attitude that lead to achieving goals that enhance the hospital organization as a whole.

Memorial Hospital is a large hospital that is privately owned. Memorial hospital provides services that are basic for most large hospital facilities similar in the area, like lab, x-rays, emergency room, intensive and cardiac care units and psychiatric ward. One goal the hospital has is paying close attention to each patient, by offering quality care at an affordable price. In this essay we will discuss ways that the hospital might measure quality, the potential cost and failure of quality for Memorial Hospital and discuss each measure, discuss ideals or techniques from TQM that Janice could use to help Memorial ideals on providing quality healthcare as well as analyze the methods memorial could use to assess the quality of health care it is providing. Memorial Hospital is not trying to compete with the other hospital in the area by having all the up to date equipment, they just want to offer affordable quality healthcare. The quality of the hospital and patient care will set them aside from all of the other hospitals.

The first step in the process is that of performance measures. This step includes process measures and outcome measures. Process measures are the way of delivering services that leads to a certain outcome. If the PI team is designed properly, the probability of achieving the desired outcome will increase (p. 45). Outcome measures are the result of “the process of systematically tracking a patient’s clinical treatment and responses to that treatment, including measures of morbidity and functional status, for the purpose of improving care” (p. 46). In this section is where the presentation’s heading National Benchmark should be presented. A benchmark is used in an outcome measure to compare services of one organization with those of a similar

The Baldrige Performance Excellence Program is a current model using certain criteria for purposes of improving quality and risk management. Health care organizations and risk managers around the country utilize this model to boost safety processes and outcomes. At the other end, a final goal is sought to reduce cost and get positive results for the organization. Criteria within the Baldrige model focuses on the successful operation of health care organizations that corroborate between units and departments, including leadership and performance, while also considering Joint Commission accreditation, Magnet status, and the Institute for Healthcare Improvement initiatives (The National Institute of Standards and Technology, 2014). The goal of the Baldrige model is to lead all components of the organization to be unified and productive as a whole, manage change, and examine and analyze data in order to be competitive and successful in the healthcare market.

The World Health Organization outlines 6 areas of quality that help shape our definition of what makes quality care. Those areas are; (1) Effective: using evidence bases practice to improve health outcomes based on needs of individuals and communities. (2) Efficient: healthcare that maximizes
