AMP 450V Topic 5 Assignment: Benchmark – Critical Decision-Making and Organizational Performance

View the scenario called “Critical Decision Making for Providers” found in the Allied Health Community media.

In a 1,000-1,250-word paper, examine the scenario involving Mike, the lab technician, and discuss the following:

  1. Discuss the consequences of a failure to report.
  2. Explain the impact his decision had on patient safety and organizational performance (risk for litigation, organization’s quality metrics, the workload of other hospital departments, etc.).
  3. As Mike’s manager, describe how you would address the issue with him and steps you would take to ensure other staff members do not repeat the same kind of mistake.
  4. Reflect on the scenario and describe what underlying aspects or issues may be contributing to workplace dilemmas such as this.
  5. Consider the manner in which most healthcare organizations function (structure, people, technology, environment). As a leader, discuss what principles of organizational behavior and development can be applied to effectively contribute to the success of a healthcare organization. How could these principles be applied to this scenario?

Considering these characteristics of yourself, how can you as a leader use these traits to improve and engage in communications within your interprofessional teams?
