Health Service Administration: Taking an closer look Kejuana Brooks
Main Ideas • Challenges healthcare administrators face around the world today • Problems In the hospitals • Why aren’t hospitals running smoothly?
Leadership Roles *Collaborative & Complexity leadership • “The term collaborative leadership was coined to describe the leadership skills needed to successfully develop and manage inter-organizational strategic alliances and other forms of partnership” (Deppman and Borkowski 1). • Collaborative leadership allow individuals to achieve successes by working together. • “Complexity leadership theory conceptualizes leadership as a continual process that sterns from collaboration, complex systems thinking, and innovation mindsets” (Weberg 1). • Complexity leadership is said to improve cost and quality care.
Administrators already in the field *A walk in the administrators shoes • “Hospital executives understand that pursuing their hospital’s mission while also pursuing revenues that will sustain operations can seem like two disparate goals that are difficult to reconcile.” (Moore and Egan 1). • The tasks and challenges the hospital administrators face are not easy but is hard to see from the outside looking in. • Some general challenges from the administrators side include staffing issues, financial pressures and support.
Outside looking in *Healthcare executives/ chairman's view • From the outside looking in, some of the executives and healthcare chairman’s choose to speak on the issues of the hospitals which lead to management • “It is not surprising that financial challenges and health reform implementation are on the minds of hospital CEOs,” says Deborah J. Bowen, FACHE, CAE, president and CEO of ACHE. “In addition, both government mandates and patient safety remain top priorities as CEOs and leadership teams work hard to improve patient care and redesign care delivery as they face a challenging reimbursement climate.” (“Top Issues,” 2013).
