The Scientific Management movement occurred with theorist Frederick Winslow Taylor. Taylor’s philosophy focused on the belief that making people work hard as possible was not as efficient as utilizing how the work was performed. According to Leading and Management book the scientific management theory is “based on the idea that there is one best way accomplish a task” (Yoder-Wise, 2011). Scientific Management states that all humans are motivated by money and that there should be separation between management and workers (Lecture 1, n.d).  This leads to management making decisions without input from employees and employees just doing what they are told.  This was believed to be the best and most productive way to manage.

 

I have worked as a hospice nurse case manager out on the field and it can be very challenging at times. One of the things I saw inefficient while working out on the field was the lack of communication between per diem, on-call staff, and the assigned nurse case manager. Unfortunately, there was a time when I worked for a hospice company that did not supply per diem staff with computers. This problem would make it very hard for the assigned case manager and the per diem staff. The per diem staff was unable to retrieve records of the client and the assigned case manager was unable to know what was addressed or done with the client during the visit. The per diem staff failed to leave nursing notes in the client’s chart making it difficult once again to know what was assessed at time of visit. The per diem staff also had difficulties knowing what medications the client was on because it was prohibited to leave a medication list at the client’s home and the per diem nurse didn’t have a computer. The hospice company failed to include the per diem staff for regular interdisciplinary meetings that would have helped address many nursing problems.

 

I have worked for a couple of different hospices and I see progress being made. Currently the hospice I work for incorporates mandatory interdisciplinary bi-weekly meetings with the staff. The interdisciplinary meetings give opportunity for the staff to bring forth ways to communicate more efficiently as a team. The email system is also used and all staff including per diem is included when addressing client concerns. The per diem staff has been given computers to be able to have access to the client’s information and allow the nurse to chart. This process makes it easier for the assigned nurse case manager to see what problem/s was addressed in the plan of care. Communication is essential in all type of work but extremely essential when you are out in the field.

The ways of “managing” employees have been

The ways of “managing” employees have been taking a transformation for some time now, many theories on how to use strategies for managing employees and companies have been developed and been emerging since the early 1900’s. One of the early theories known is the Scientific management theory. This theory is described as a theory which has built a foundation on having a disconnect between management and employees, as well as stating that humans are motivated by money. The harder the employees work the more money the company makes, this brought a dissatisfaction to the employees and a feeling of unappreciation of their skills (GCU, n.d.).

 

If most hospitals applied the scientific management theory to departments, some areas of inefficiency would be, we would be treated more like machines and numbers, rather than the personal relationships we have now with our management teams. Currently in health care we are continuously asked to do more and more task and documentation with no financial compensation. Employee work hours change to benefit the company, especially to compensate for the nursing/staff shortages. Hospitals may cut back on specialty teams to avoid extra cost for the organizations, for example, PICC teams and wound care teams, they are doing away with staff that have a specialized skill due to cost.

 

The one participative decision making that exist in my workplace would have to be the yearly employee satisfaction survey that we take. This has been a method to voice our opinions on many topics and issues around the hospital, from different disciplinary departments. This has brought some positive changes in areas we are most dissatisfied with. Health care organizations are increasingly responding to quality, cost and safety pressures by implementing bundles of high-performance work practices (HPWP) designed to improve both worker commitment and health care outcomes. HPWP that integrate front line workers in health care, with opportunities for participative decision making can positively influence job satisfaction and perceived quality of care (Chuang, Morgan, & Konrad, n.d.).

Selecting a Theoretical Framework

Selecting a Theoretical Framework

Evaluating a critical appraisal of a research framework can help you to assess the theory’s reliability and validity, as well as its applicability to research and practice. For this Discussion, you will select a theoretical framework in a published study to evaluate. In doing this, you will consider how this framework might be applied to a practice problem of interest to you.

To prepare:

  • Identify a practice problem of interest to you.
  • Locate an article in the Walden Library, or one presented in the Learning Resources, that addresses the practice problem  NOTE: You may wish to select an article that specifies the theoretical framework used in the research study addressing the practice problem (meaning a problem pertaining to where I practice as a nurse).
  • Using the strategies presented in Chapter 7 of The Practice of Nursing Research: Appraisal, Synthesis, and Generation of Evidence, critically analyze the selected framework, engaging in “critical appraisal of a research framework,” (p. 127).
  • Determine if the use of the selected framework was appropriate.
  • Ask yourself: Could I apply this theoretical framework to an evidence-based practice project that addresses my problem of interest?

Today’s workforce is diverse and has multiple conflicting priorities.

Today’s workforce is diverse and has multiple conflicting priorities. As a nurse leader, you would like to see your hospital implement an outreach program that will benefit needy members of the community. What are some methodologies of communication you would use to develop a shared vision with your stakeholders? How would you apply strategic management to make your visions for the outreach program become reality?
