As a student pursuing a Master's degree at Florida International University, I am aware of the future benefits of receiving a degree of this caliber in regards to career opportunities and compensation. FIU offers a variety of degree programs ranging from bachelor's to doctorates and professional degrees. However, there are existing programs that should be offered at a higher degree level which would significantly benefit graduate students and the university. One particular program that should most certainly be offered to students is a Masters degree in Health Services Administration. The university as well as graduate students are mutually being deprived of a great opportunity, therefore I am writing this memo in efforts to implement a Master's degree program in Health Services Administration for the Nicole Weirtheim College of Nursing & Health Sciences. Current Situation Florida International University is currently in the midst of the country's biggest universities and it is evident that it will continue to augment in size. With the ongoing construction of new buildings to accommodate additional classrooms, student living, and parking garages it is without a doubt that student enrollment will gradually increase over the upcoming years. It is for this reason that it is imperative to put forward additional degree programs to students. Florida International Universities' school of Nursing and Health Sciences offers a bachelors degree program in Health Services Administration but does not offer students this degree at a Master level. This particular degree has become gradually more prominent over the years and numerous accredited universities throughout the nation offer this program as a master's degree for this reason. According... ... middle of paper ... ... fact positive as it can lead to further expansion. The staff and classrooms are currently present, all that needs to be done is have the College of Nursing & Health Sciences board execute the Master's degree program in Health Services Administration. Going Forward The implementation of a Master's degree in Health Services Administration would be greatly beneficial to students as well as Florida International University and action should be taken. University enrollment could gradually increase, and students will be further prepared for their careers. If and when the program is implemented, current undergraduate students should be made of aware of this opportunity prior to receiving their bachelors degree in order to commence enrollment. Please take this proposal into deliberation, and feel free to contact me in regards to any additional information. Thank You
The national shortage of Registered Nurses (RNs) has helped generate formidable interest in the nursing profession among people entering the workforce and those pursuing a career change. According to a report issued by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Service in 2002, the national population is continuing to grow and age and medical services continue to advance, so the need for nurses will continue to increase. They report from 2000 to 2020 the predicted shortage of nurses is expected to grow to 29 percent, compared to a 6 percent shortage in 2000. With the projected supply, demand, and shortage of registered nurses and nursing salaries ever-increasing, the nursing profession can offer countless opportunities. But first one must determine which educational path to pursue, Bachelor of Science in Nursing (BSN) or Associate Degree in nursing (ADN). Most will initially be educated at the associate degree level, even though the American Organization of Nursing Executives (AONE) has recommended a baccalaureate level as a minimal for entry-level nurses. With the expanding number of RN to BSN programs available there is always the option to further one’s education at a later date. The benefits for acquiring a BSN over an ADN include a better knowledge for evidence-based practice, an increased advantage for promotion, and the necessary gateway for higher education.

However, I do not want to do this at just any campus, but I want to accomplish this dream in a program whose staff puts the students’ needs before theirs. Anytime I have questions regarding documentation, I know that I can always depend on the University of Houston-Clear Lake staff to assist me with anything. Furthermore, when I conducted my research on different MHA programs, I desired to find a program near home and one that could provide me with countless possibilities. The MHA program at UHCL met both of those stipulations. The best thing for me was that UHCL’s MHA program offers classes in the largest medical center in the world. What better way to network, than to have classes in the Texas Medical Center, where I would have the opportunity to meet with professionals who were once in my
All in all, I believe that I have gained many skills throughout my time with my employer. I hope that once I do receive my degree healthcare management, I can apply even more skills to everyday challenges that may arise. In a field that’s growing rapidly, one can be assured that conflicts will always happen, and people will not always work together. With several team building activities, a higher employee morale can be achieved.
“Employment of medical and health services managers is projected to grow 17 percent from 2014 to 2024” With the generation of baby boomers heading towards retirement age, more of them will need to use the healthcare system, and this generation contains more people than previous generations have. Also, because this generation is probably living longer than any previous generations, they are more likely to have more chronic diseases as they age, which means more demand on the healthcare system as a whole. The medical and healthcare management will be highs demand to organizer information that and other need that a patient will be required.

University of Virginia is my sole choice for scholastic development. In my capacity as a frontline nurse, I have laid the foundation for the focus of my research interests and feel that my performance, initiative, and dedication to my patients are genuine evidence of my ability to perform competently and enthusiastically in an academic research setting. I hope that with this degree I can incorporate DNP essentials in my practice and make a difference by focusing on patient experience. No other field could ever provide me with personal and professional satisfaction and I look forward with great purpose to contributing much more. Thank you for your time and
Nursing students at State University need better clinical experiences and better clinical sites. Clinical sites that have nothing to do or preceptors who don’t want to educate should be cut out and replaced with better sites. Ideally each clinical should allow nursing students to gain experience in critical skills and patient ca...
