Although healthcare organizations often indicate that it is a simple request to have healthcare professionals such as family physicians, midwives, obstetricians and nurses, work together, it cannot be assumed that these professionals have been prepared with the competencies (knowledge, skills and judgement) to collaborate and the necessary attributes to effectively work together (Pfaff, Baxter, Jack & Ploeg, 2014). The identification of healthcare providers who will work effectively in an…

In this question, I have tried to explain the characteristics of complex adapted system and relate them with the healthcare world. I then explain the main underlying causes of complexity and how this complexity is hindering new technology from finding its way into the market. I believe we are being stuck in an infinite loop. Technologists say that technology is aimed to reduce complexity and smoothen workflow, yet technology itself brings complexity into the system. Researchers claim that modern…

My issue is the main overview of Canadian healthcares important and popular topics, it goes over things such as the history and changes over time, the Canadian system compared to the US, The youth system and mental disorders, and the hidden fees/costs of Canadian healthcare. These topics are important because they affect many Canadians through costs, common disorders, and the wait times. I used many sources including some from the government and many .ca sources showing they are relevant and…

In today’s healthcare system, quality care is a patient expectation and a responsibility of healthcare professionals and directors. Patient safety care and quality is an expectation of all patients and is generally a prevalent part of a healthcare facilities mission statement (Candy, 2014). In addition, patients primarily presume that the delivery of their care will be ethical. Furthermore, this is often defined in a healthcare organization’s value statement and code of ethics (Candy, 2014). I…

Malpractice has greatly affected the healthcare field by causing people to not want to seek help. If a case of malpractice has been heard at a hospital near a person, it makes them reluctant to go and seek medical aid. The thought of negligence or malpractice makes a patient anxious when dealing with doctors or anyone who is meant to aid a person with their health needs. Many Americans today are already unable to afford regular health care but when an extra malpractice cost is added in, it…

I define healthcare administration as the process of ensuring healthcare which providers treat and care for patients as the core objective for the establishment of hospitals. Also administrators find new ways to improve the efficiency and quality of the care that is provided. It is important to note that the healthcare administrator’s responsibilities can be expressed in different ways depending on the size of the organization. I believe that it is a very big responsibility that many lives…

In addition to ethical issues faced in healthcare organizations, are legal issues. According to Pozgar (2016), laws are enacted to regulate human behavior for the benefit of society. Laws are a basis for conduct in our society and if breached can lead to serious implications. Public policy is the principle of law that holds that no one can do that which tends to be injurious to the public or against the public good (Pozgar, 2016, p. 240). Though not directly involved with patient care, a health…
