Leadership
Assumes a leadership role within one’s scope of practice as a designer, manager, and
coordinator of health care to meet the needs of populations
The foundation of shared leadership is sharing the power and influencing team members while
achieving management goals. In my paper, I was experiencing a shared leadership role by
bearing the responsibility of working together with my team as we led each other to support the
community. Healthcare assumes a shared leadership role to meet the needs of patients as well.
For example, nurses are designers. They discuss and share the information to design a plan for
the easiest way to communicate with patients. They design successful communication
experiences with the patients by speaking with soft voice and finding the simple words that
patients will understand easily. They also design teaching materials for patients to be more
understandable for the elderly by using larger fonts and black ink printable materials. Nurses are
managers that use the shared leadership to motivate the team working effectively. For example,
the nursing manager involves the team members by allowing them to make their own decision
instead of just simply follow of the instructions. This make they feel important and motivates
them to provide patient care. Nurses also are coordinators within a shared leadership because
they position themselves to help each other. For example, some nurses have a great IV insertion
skills and they assist others who have difficulties performing needlestick, while others have great
assessment skills and can give a second opinion on a patients’ condition.
In my paper, creating fundraising teams is a great way to promote a healthy community. The
organization had to implement a strategy for action, manages our planning, and evaluate our
team works. For example, we organized ourselves in a steps by steps process. First, we counted
how many people would be involved in the event. Second, we created an event master plan.
Third, we set the date and time. Finally, we implemented the action by selling the food. We
managed the event by tracking each other. For example, when the event location changed, we
immediately notified other members. We also evaluated if the strategies were useful, and we
checked the total amount of funds raised to see if the plan needed to be improved or continued.
Delegates and supervises the nursing care given by others while retaining accountability
for the quality of care provided
In my paper, we delegated works and supervised the fundraising event with accountability for
each other. For example, we delegated members on the Relay for Life team to prepare desserts,
and the cashier was responsible for accounting for the money correctly. We also supervised all
members together to ensure they were on time for the event for the event and were being
accountable for their position. This applies to patients when nurses to provide the accountability
and quality of care. For example, when nurses delegate the nursing care partners (NCP) to check
the blood glucose test, nurses are being accountable to recheck when the NCP reports the glucose
is too high or low. Also, a nurse as a manager is being accountable to carry out supervisory
responsibilities. For example, when patients are responding unfavorably to treatment, or they are
in a rapidly deteriorating condition, the manager needs to be called on to solve the problems. The
nurses worked well together by making sure to delegate the right jobs for the assistants and by
supervising others to ensure the care was done correctly, safely, and successfully.
