Pros and Cons of Organizational Model
There are many positives to my organization's nursing model. Berger (2017), is always working to improve health care solutions and advance services in our county for many on-coming years ("The Berger way"). I see this as a positive and negative. This is a pro because we are always looking for opportunities for advancement, however, it also means that there are many areas that need advancement. Being a small rural hospital, often I find that we do not always have everything that a patient may need. There are times when we have to send patients to larger organizations simply because we do not have the proper resources or consulting doctors available. This will be a time consuming process trying to advance …show more content…

This really makes nursing personal and helps each staff member provide more compassionate care. I also believe that introducing The Berger-way when staff are first employed is a great idea. This gives an idea of what to expect and what is expected of staff before they even work on the floor. Lastly, I think that the way Berger is able to encourage teamwork and excellent attitude is great structure. In my evaluation, I was told that I scored outstanding in pride and teamwork and this only lead me to wanting to be even more a part of our …show more content…

al., involving staff nurses in developing new plans should come naturally (2015, p.512). To help strengthen our mission and vision, I think that Berger could go into more detail and update the two. They could mention how they are now starting to offer advancements in care. I know we have made a few big changes like offering medical detox for patients wanting to quit drugs and we now have a dermatologist and urologist on site. Like mentioned in the last paragraph, I think that if Berger we able to focus on long-term goals by breaking them down short term goals, issues would get resolved faster. From a nurses standpoint, I think that nurses can be involved in the way these mission and visions are carried out by following policy and also being involved. If voiced, opinions can make a big difference. This goes well with the decentralized structure of my hospital.
Shared governance is framework for empowering accountability and decisions to make an organization as effective as it can be with constant innovation, and is defined as the go-to structure of today (Ohio University, n.d, module 3). In order for this structure to be carried of successfully, there are many key points that need to be in place. Supportive managers who help educate, a culture that encourages shared government, a budget that can handle this structure, and a supportive organizational philosophy (Ohio University, n.d., module

(ANA, 2010, p. 1) These “outline the steps that nurses must take to meet client healthcare needs.” () The nursing process, for example, is one of the things I use daily.

    Nursing units today, need to be ran like a well-oiled machine. In order to do this, everyone that makes up the nursing unit needs to understand their co-workers and what drives them professionally. There are four generations that make-up todays nursing units.
