Directions: Please read the scenario and propose a solution. (type your proposal in the text box)Sunshine Health Corporation has an office in Des Moines IA that is the company headquarters for Crazy Charlie’s Custom Wheelchairs. This is the original building the company has operated in after opening the fifth unit in Des Moines in 1972. The office has an old PBX system and old telephone wiring as well as ISDN running throughout the office. The office runs the old fashioned way according to the retired company president you are told on your initial visit. The president told you this is the way we like it. Sunshine has told you to assess the networks and communications systems then submit a plan for modernizing the office bringing it into the 21st century. Here is what you find:Upon meeting with the management team you learn most of the marketing staff have chosen to work remotely using their own laptops instead of in the office though there is no consistency as to format other than they must have Microsoft Office 2003 with Word Access Excel and PowerPoint. It cannot be newer or it will not be able to interact with the company computers or everything must be formatted to Office 2003.The communications closet is a birds nest made of patched together grow as you go layout. No computers are networked. In speaking with the administrative staff most work is printed and hand reviewed using white out and red pens then given back for correction until it is acceptable often creating for more work for the staff.The new company president is coming from Sunshine Headquarters and starts in 2 weeks. The new network and office must be ready to go. What do you propose?Have fun with this within reason. Bounce ideas off each other to consider alternatives and possible solutions. How can you develop an efficient network while retaining costs from getting out of control. What LAN and WAN Technologies will you use and why? Please explain.It is important to bring in supporting materials to substantiate your plan and network. Locate credible resources to do this. Remember you would be submitting this to a client the final copy. Consider the discussion draft edits and revisions. Supporting material needs to be included beyond that of the course material.150 words

Think about a particular organization. How would you depict the reporting structure in this organization? What is the flow of communication and decision making between various people? Does the image in your mind match with one (or more) of the organizational structures discussed in this week’s Learning Resources? Why or why not?

For anyone working in a health care setting, looking at the organizational chart can provide useful information about the context that affects daily practice as well as the achievement of longer term goals. For managers, understanding the structure and dynamics portrayed in such a chart—as well as those that may be missing—is especially important.

For this Discussion, you analyze an organizational chart from the point of view of nursing management.

To prepare:

• Obtain a copy of an organizational chart which does not have a shared governance model.
• Obtain a copy of an organizational chart from a magnet hospital. You can find a list of current magnet-recognized hospitals at http://www.nursecredentialing.org/Magnet/FindaMagnetFacility  
• Examine both organizational charts through the lens of management (i.e., think about the responsibilities and concerns that you, as a manager, may have).
• Review  Marquis and Huston (2015) page 279, Display 12.5 The 14 Forces of Magnetism for Magnet Hospital Status and Learning Exercise 12.4
• Think about how the organizational charts align?
• Think about how communication actually occurs at your organization.

By Day 3

Post and Compare and contrast the organizational chart you identified to the shared governance model on Marquis and Huston (2015, p. 277).  Consider major components of organizational structure and communication such as centrality and decentralization.  Describe at least five of the “forces of magnetism” and compare how the magnet and non-magnet organizations meet them or need improvement in these areas (Marquis & Huston, 2015, p. 279, Display 12.5). 

Research Paper

The Research Paper is a ten- to twelve-page paper (excluding title and references pages) that provides the student the opportunity to investigate a specific natural disaster topic, apply graduate-level critical thinking to the presentation of the information, and utilize and synthesize appropriate current research for your selected topic. The Research Paper utilizes professional health care knowledge and skills and applies those proficiencies to the context of quality improvement and risk management by developing a natural disaster strategic plan for community health: Mobilizing For Action Through Planning and Partnerships (MAPP) Process. The three-part Strategic Disaster Plan will be developed in Weeks Two, Four, and Six. Review Chapter 3 in the textbook. In this final part, the students will take the strategic issues identified in Part II (Week Four) and formulate goal statements and strategies for addressing issues, resulting in development and adoption of an interrelated set of strategy statements. Lastly, an action plan with an evaluation timeline that identifies outcomes to be reached and what steps would be taken to ensuing adjustments in the strategy plan if needed. The final draft with all three parts will be posted together for a final grade.
