Role Of The Healthcare Administrator
By now you know that administrative responsibilities in health care facilities are managed by professionals who oversee medical facility processes, have in-depth knowledge of regulatory requirements, and have a thorough understanding of the complexities involved in patient care. Drawing upon what you have learned in this course, imagine you have been invited to an annual meeting for a large national health care company. You have been asked to speak to a group of managers and directors about the strategic role of health care administrators and must prepare a comprehensive overview of the political, legal, and ethical aspects of the health care administrator’s role.
Instructions
For this assignment, create a professional, narrated presentation focused on the political, legal, and ethical aspects of the health care administrator’s role. Your target audiences are professionals in the industry who do not have a thorough understanding of your work.
Create a PowerPoint (or Prezi) and record the presentation using Kaltura. Follow the content outline below and use speaker notes to cover the required topics listed here:
Provide an overview of the political, legal, and ethical aspects specific to the health care administrator’s role (2-3 slides).
Summarize how the different aspects you identified above overlap and interface (1-2 slides).
Provide three examples of the duties and responsibilities involved in health care administration, such as risk management, policy, and procedure, regulatory compliance, ethics board, compliance officer, et cetera (2-3 slides).
List two types of jobs or titles often found in health care delivery settings that are focused on risk management and regulatory compliance; including a review of the importance and benefits of these functions within the health care system (1-2 slides).
Summarize how the political, legal, and ethical issues affect patients and staff including the patient benefits (2-3 slides).
Summarize how the political, legal, and ethical issues affect the financial and business operations of a health care facility (2-3 slides).
Summarize the health care administrator’s role in regard to political, legal, and ethical issues related to an issue such as a data breach, a HIPAA or EMTALA violation, et cetera. Review the implications of this function if mishandled (2-3 slides).
Note: The presentation should not exceed 15 slides (with speaker notes), including a title slide and reference slide.

Hello Class,
Within my tenure as a nurse in Colorado's chronic disease unit, I had the privilege of caring for a patient who was facing complications associated with end-stage kidney disease, ultimately progressing toward the final stage of life. The patient's journey commenced with recurrent urinary tract infections that gradually deteriorated over time, resulting in the emergence of pyelonephritis. As the patient's condition worsened, they started to manifest fever, chills, flank pain, and profound fatigue.
Collaborating closely with the medical team, we commenced a proactive course of action by administering potent antibiotics and diligently overseeing the patient's vital signs and laboratory findings. Despite our best efforts, the infection persisted and evolved into sepsis, placing the patient in a critical condition. This unfortunate turn of events has placed the patient in a critical condition, requiring immediate attention and intensive care. The patient and their family were provided with information regarding the gravity of the situation, and conversations transitioned towards prioritising the patient's comfort and preserving their dignity during their final moments.
As the patient's health continued to decline, the family remained a steadfast source of support, offering emotional solace and actively engaging in care-related choices. During the patient's final hours, I had the privilege of observing the remarkable influence of advanced pain management, palliative care, and the comforting presence of the family. The serene passing of the patient emphasized the significance of managing end-stage complications through a collaborative approach involving various healthcare professionals and effective communication.
This experience has further strengthened my dedication to advocating for the desires of our patients, fostering transparent discussions regarding treatment choices, and delivering comprehensive care throughout the terminal phases of life. As a nurse, I acknowledge the honor of providing assistance to patients and their loved ones amidst difficult circumstances, and I hold onto this knowledge as a testament to the significant impact nurses have in the lives of those they attend to during this sensitive period of end-of-life care.
In the Module 4 Discussion, you considered how professional nurses can become involved in policy-making.
In the Module 4 Discussion, you considered how professional nurses can become involved in policy-making. A critical component of any policy design is evaluation of the results. How comfortable are you with the thought of becoming involved with such matters?
Unit 5 Discussion 551
A 41-year-old obese male patient is diagnosed with congestive heart failure (CHF). He is told to begin a moderate exercise routine with a healthy diet and is prescribed several medications — including a diuretic.
- Based on your knowledge of the kidney and the disease of CHF, what factors would be important in selecting a specific diuretic? How would you explain to this patient how it works?
- If this patient developed a disease that caused the renal blood flow to be diminished, how might this impact the medication he is taking for his congestive heart failure? As his health care provider, how would you change his treatment in this situation?
Instructions: One to 1 pg and a half is enough its a discussion post. APA style. Must have at least 3 references.

DECISION TREE FOR NEUROLOGICAL AND MUSCULOSKELETAL DISORDERS
For your Assignment, your Instructor will assign you one of the decision tree interactive media pieces provided in the Resources. As you examine the patient case studies in this module’s Resources, consider how you might assess and treat patients presenting symptoms of neurological and musculoskeletal disorders.
To Prepare:
- Review the interactive media piece assigned by your Instructor.
- Reflect on the patient’s symptoms and aspects of the disorder presented in the interactive media piece.
- Consider how you might assess and treat patients presenting with the symptoms of the patient case study you were assigned.
- You will be asked to make three decisions concerning the diagnosis and treatment for this patient. Reflect on potential co-morbid physical as well as patient factors that might impact the patient’s diagnosis and treatment.
Write a 1- to 2-page summary paper that addresses the following:
- Briefly summarize the patient case study you were assigned, including each of the three decisions you took for the patient presented.
- Based on the decisions you recommended for the patient case study, explain whether you believe the decisions provided were supported by the evidence-based literature. Be specific and provide examples. Be sure to support your response with evidence and references from outside resources.
- What were you hoping to achieve with the decisions you recommended for the patient case study you were assigned? Support your response with evidence and references from outside resources.
- Explain any difference between what you expected to achieve with each of the decisions and the results of the decision in the exercise. Describe whether they were different. Be specific and provide examples.

Response TO WEEK 8 DISC
PLEASE RESPOND TO THE FOLLOWING IN 50 WORDS OR MORE:
My thoughts on trends in nursing have shifted a bit since week 1. A topic I addressed was nurse-to-patient ratios and how they are incompatible with providing the best care to patients. Although that issue still proves to be a problem, I feel more informed on the causes and effects of this trend. I’ve learned about legislative and environmental factors that come into play. Funding for institutions is limited and in order to address this issue properly, we must be informed and have background knowledge of the people we are appointing who make the decisions to allocate health care funds. Also, being more inclusive when giving positions in higher departments would be helpful. Nurses should have access to take on more leadership roles to be able to be involved in decision making. Nurses have first hand knowledge on what is needed on the floor. They understand the resources needed and they also can advocate for nurses who come from different backgrounds or have different levels of expertise. All in all, I have a better understanding of why this problem exists and also the ways in which we could actively rectify the situation.
