Cultivating a Fair and Just Culture in Healthcare: A Quality…

PLEASE READ THE INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE ACCEPTING MY ASSIGNMENT.

THANK YOU

Create a presentation (one-page poster and one-page reflection paper, describing steps you will take as the quality manager to influence the organization’s leadership to cultivate a fair and just culture.

The quality manager at any hospital is required to address deficiencies by improving organizational culture, providing leadership oversight, and cultivating staff relationships within the organization. This role has many priorities. For example, a quality manager is tasked with analyzing any incidents that occur within the organization and creating a leadership action plan with recommended strategies and tactics to address not just the specific incident but to drive safety and quality improvement throughout the organization.

This assessment differs from the first two assessments in that, acting as the quality manager, your focus is broader. Rather than focusing only on identifying specific actions the organization can take to remedy a particular incident that occurred, you will concentrate on what steps you will take as the quality manager to influence the organization’s leadership to cultivate a fair and just culture. What departments, leaders, and personnel will you collaborate with to improve quality for the whole organization? In a fair and just culture, safety is at the forefront of everyone’s job and all associates welcome the opportunity to highlight issueswithout fear of reprisalso that they can be addressed at a systemic level throughout the organization.

This assessment requires you to assume the role of the quality manager. You will have the choice between three different scenarios as you complete this assessment.

Step 1

Choose a scenario from the Vila Health: Patient Safety activity: patient identification, medication error, or HIPAA.

Step 2

Choose a format for this assessment.
