Having clear, well defined goals can: help business growth, achieve your objectives, improve teamwork and collaboration, and help everyone understand the direction a business is heading (Australian Government, 2016). I chose this principle because goals towards patient-centered measures and outcomes are increasingly important as insurance reimbursement is based on performance. Having well- implemented goals that provide a transformation to a more patient-centered model ensures the highest reimbursement for the facility, this should be the direction healthcare facilities from a business stand point are moving. Moreover, well-implemented goals have the potential to improve the comprehensiveness, coordination, efficiency, effectiveness, cost effectiveness, and value of care, as well as the satisfaction of patients and providers. My institution strives to continuously improve the quality-of-care, with a vision of patient-centered care.

It is the reason why my department is supporting my capstone for Nursing 4600.…

It is important to promote all person centred core values when helping patients because by focusing on the patient’s needs we are able to increase the quality of care we are providing as patients are working in partnership with us. This builds on the trust between patient and staff so that there is good communication between them. This reduces the likelihood of abuse and missed or delayed treatment as patients feel they can express their needs. As well as this it provides a more positive experience for the patient, increasing the reputation of the hospital and leading to positive feedback from the patient, relatives or visitors. This also creates a more positive working environment for staff, as everything runs more efficiently and good feedback can motivate and boost staff moral. Following this, it is also the law that we must work in this way, according to the Social Care Act 2008 we must create individualised care plan. Therefore, by working along with this and the hospital policy we are safeguarding our jobs.…
