I found that showing respect to everyone helps make me be a better leader. One thing that always makes my day is when someone will see that I’m the lead nurse for the day and they will say, “Marion, I’m so glad you are in charge today. Our day will be great!” I believe part of the reason they feel that way is that I respect my co-workers and their opinions. I also respect my doctors and when they feel that trust they seem to feel better that their patient is on our unit. And then there is the patient. Often I have to go in and talk to a patient because of a problem. First of all, I sit down next to them to talk instead of leaning over their bed or standing there with my arms crossed. I listen and engage them in why they are unhappy and also try to bring out the good and positive things about their stay…
The health care manager takes on many roles and responsibilities including organization, planning, and controlling resources (Lombardi, Schermerhorn, &Kramer, 2007). Leading and influencing others is also very important as a role of a health care manager (Lombardi, Schermerhorn, &Kramer, 2007). Managers are expected to demonstrate competency, confidence, and an ability to lead employees in the proper conduct of their daily activities. An effective leadership entails establishment and maintenance of a cordial yet professional atmosphere in which everybody understands their responsibilities and their roles in the broader…

1.2 - In a care setting it is not only the individuals using the service and the staff that have to be together for long periods of time. The staff themselves have to get along to support the individuals they are paid to look after. Supportive working relationships are important within the work force and help create a good moral. People’s behaviour can rub off each other in affect and if the staff are quiet and withdrawn eventually the individuals will pick up on this resulting in unhappy residents. Within my role I work closely with physiotherapists and the speech and language team, this is different from my care role because I am working towards different goals.…

A good leader is able to take good advice from anyone apart of the nursing team whether nursing aide, licensed nurse, or registered nurse. Leaders should also have to make some difficult decisions at times to reduce a negative environment. Removing negative staff members from the atmosphere is key in running a successful business. As the saying goes “One apple spoils the whole bunch”. Maintaining a positive, safe work environment and building a team that focuses on the safety and well being of its patients as well as the entire healthcare team is the ultimate goal (McGuire & Kennedy, 2006). It is everyone’s responsibility to improve the retention of nurses in the healthcare facilities across the United States. A good leader would promote a positive environment that includes collaboration with other members of the healthcare team. A happy staff has a happy leader. Once this attribute is put into focus in the healthcare facilities it is then that we will see more happy nurses that is ready to provide safe and efficient care to the…
Usually staff development plans are made by the leadership staff to enable employees to understand their jobs, provide them incentive for growth within the company, and guide them into the right direction when situations occur that may be problematic. A positive environment is a necessity in nonprofit organizations as it was previously mentioned; typically the volunteers are the nuts and bolts in the business. Sara Tillott wrote an article which discussed the importance of staff engagement and the development of a positive workplace through the efforts of leadership through her activities in the healthcare field. She stated in her article, “My time spent as a registered nurse has exposed me to the effects of a poor workplace culture, predominantly influenced by hierarchal management and dogmatic leadership styles.” Although many nonprofits don’t have a medical environment it can be said that many people that are in all types of work environments have been exposed to those negative cultures. Later she mentioned cultural changes and stated, “There is, however, growing concern that perhaps the potential for greater individual and team effectiveness is inhibited by the way organizations use their valuable human, financial and natural resources.” Communication between leadership and the staff can be increased by positive mentoring, regular staff meetings, and…

From my experience as a staff nurse in the ED, it takes great teamwork to deal with the everyday stress and the call of duty in the ED; this only can come from a department with great leadership. I have had leaders who will server right beside you and help when things go crazy and I have had leaders who will sit in their offices and not come out to help at all. I prefer the lead that will come out and will answer the call light, place a patient on the bedpan, take a patient to the floor, and give you a bathroom or lunch break. My leaders have allowed me to cry when needed too, and not appear weak, vent when a patient or family is being demanding, listen to my concerns and not view them to being negative or complaining and willing to take my concerns and make…
