HLT-313V Topic 2 DQ 2

A formal risk management plan demonstrates a health care organization’s approach as well as support for risk management and, ultimately, patient safety. Accessing information from your own employer/organization or using the internet to find an allied health care organization located in your city or region, identify the goals and objectives, scope, and functions of an existing risk management plan. How does the plan “measure up” in terms of meeting ethical and legal responsibilities to stakeholders? How might you improve it? Explain.
You are required to use and cite a minimum of two references from the GCU Library to support your response.

Solution

I will be discussing information found at out local providence hospital here in Washington regarding community health. The goals and objectives of this plan are that they are committed to ensuring health equity for all by addressing the underlying causes of racial and economical inequities and health disparities. Their vision is “health for a better world”, and they hope to achieve that by addressing not only the clinical care factors that determine an individuals length and quality of life, but also the economic and social factors, the physical environment, and the health behaviors that all play an active role in determining health outcomes. They prioritize special community health need groups such as homelessness, domestic violence and child abuse, poor mental health, and access to health services for low income families.

The plan they have created is a very thorough and detailed plan, with specific tables about how they are planning on tackling these issues and with what help. They make sure that they have up to par ethical and legal requirements in their plan so that they are able to protect themselves and those that they will be working with and for.
