1. Clinic Administrator -Clinic Administrators at medical clinics may also be called managers or supervisors and have a long list of responsibilities. Some of these responsibilities include hiring and training staff, making staff schedules, and conducting staff meetings. Other responsibilities include maintaining the facility, implementing policies and even overseeing billing. Developing and employing marketing campaigns can also fall into the lap of a clinic administrator. Depending on the clinic, the range of responsibilities will differ, but one thing is for sure – a clinic administrator is tasked with important undertakings.

2.Nursing Home Administrator – A nursing home administrator is expected to oversee clinical and administrative affairs of the nursing home, as well as related facilities. Typical responsibilities include staffing and personnel recruitment, training and management, as well as supervision of financial matters and medical care. Other tasks could include the upkeep of medical supplies and facilities.

3. Health Information Manager – The foremost duty of a health information manager is securing and organizing patient records. Health information managers spend a great deal of time working with IT professionals researching software that will meet the terms of federal orders for storing electronic patient information. Health information managers must make sure these records are both correct and complete, as the records may be used for investigations, research and/or quality management. Health information managers largely focus on improving the quality of care through enhanced data management

October 22nd, 2020 APA (edition "APA 7"), Health Care and Life Sciences Comments Off on Optimization in Staffing

Optimization in Staffing

Oscar is a healthcare administration leader who oversees the management of an ambulatory care clinic. Over the past 2 months, patient inflows have dramatically increased due to a recent shutdown of a neighboring care clinic. The patient inflows require that 90% of all nursing staff work overtime to ensure effective healthcare delivery. However, having 90% of the nursing workforce work overtime could be problematic in terms of patient quality and safety. Oscar would like to determine how he can best optimize his current staff holdings to ensure a balance between quality patient care and safety.

For this Discussion, review the resources, and be sure to focus on the Bastian et al. (2015) article. Reflect on the optimization problem mentioned in the article.

By Day 3
Post a brief summary of the optimization problem presented in the Bastian et al. (2015) article in the resources for this week. Be sure to include an explanation of the objective function, as well as what the constraints actually mean. Then, explain what was done well in the article, and identify where you found shortcomings in the article. Be specific, and provide examples.

In this assignment, you should demonstrate an understanding of the authors main arguments and discuss the mini-lectures and/or interviews posted for the week.

You need to clearly show you have done a close reading of the materials, rather than simply scratching the surface. Integrate short quotes from both the authors assigned for each response papers. Be specific about what stood out for you. Provide details to show that you understand the authors theses (major argument or intervention). You should also relate the materials to your own life and consider how the material builds upon, or complicates, your understanding of sociology. No outside materials are required.
