In this assignment, you’ll be examining the role of a health care manager regarding ethical

issues and decision-making. You’ll have the opportunity to practice your professional skills

by conducting an interview. Being able to have professional conversations with all

stakeholders in an organization, including managers at various levels, is an important skill to

have as a health care manager. This will allow you the opportunity to analyze the health care

manager’s role in ethical decision-making from a management perspective.

Preparing for the Assignment:

Select and research 1 health care facility (e.g., pharmacy, medical office, nursing home,

hospital). Become familiar with the health care facility, including the mission, vision, and

goals.

Select 1 leadership position at the health care facility, such as a supervisor, manager,

director, vice president, compliance officer, or similar role.

Schedule an interview with the person in your selected health care facility’s leadership

position. 

Assignment Directions:

Complete the Summative Assessment: Health Care Leadership Interview Questionnaire and

Summary Worksheet.

NOTE: Please remove all instructions prior to submission. If you include instructions,

a 5% penalty will be assessed for failure to follow instructions.

 

Please submit as an attachment using a Word document. Do not submit .pdf files or

any other format that the instructor may not be able to open or insert comments on. If

you do so, a 10% penalty will be assessed for failure to follow instructions.

 

ADDITIONAL NOTE: This must be an actual interview with a leader. You cannot simply

research the topic. Create headings based on the questions and make sure you get

correct answers to these questions. For example, when addressing an ethical

situation that was resolved, make sure the leader speaks about an actual "ethical"

issue and not an operational concern. 

 

The notes section of the template is for your own use. This is where you document

notes you will use when writing the actual 700-word paper. Do not submit the notes as

part of your assignment.

 

Submit your assignment.
