1. Guidelines in evaluating health care facilities

All health systems should:

• implement evidence-based interventions that demonstrate improvement;
• benchmark against similar systems that are delivering best performance;
• ensure that all people with chronic disease are enabled to minimize its impact
on the quality of their lives;
• promote the culture systems and practices that will reduce harm to patients;
• build resilience to enable prevention, detection and response to health security
threats through focused attention on quality;
• put in place the infrastructure for learning;
• provide technical assistance and knowledge management for improvement.

Seven categories of interventions stand out and are routinely considered by

health system stakeholders, including providers, managers and policy-makers,
when trying to improve the quality of the health care system:
• changing clinical practice at the front line;
• setting standards;
• engaging and empowering patients, families and communities;
• information and education for health care workers, managers and policy-
makers;
• use of continuous quality improvement programs and methods;
• establishing performance-based incentives (financial and non-financial);
• legislation and regulation.

2. What kind of a nursing leader are you?

Democratic leadership is exactly what it sounds like -- the leader makes

decisions based on the input of each team member. Although he or she makes the final
call, each employee has an equal say on a project's direction.

Democratic leadership is one of the most effective leadership styles because it

allows lower-level employees to exercise authority they'll need to use wisely in future
positions they might hold. It also resembles how decisions can be made in company
board meetings.
 For example, in a company board meeting, a democratic leader might give the
team a few decision-related options. They could then open a discussion about each
option. After a discussion, this leader might take the board's thoughts and feedback into
consideration, or they might open this decision up to a vote.

3. What is nursing administration?

Nursing administration may be best defined as the strategic management of

nursing personnel, patient care, and facility resources through the support of regulating
policies. Nurse administrators are responsible for ensuring that hospitals or other
healthcare facilities operate in a safe and cost-effective manner. They achieve this
through the management of financial and human resources, and through the
supervision of nurses and other allied healthcare team members. In addition to
overseeing the nursing staff, nurse administrators are called upon to address and direct
any number of projects related to regulatory, quality/safety, community, and financial
issues. It is up to nurse administrators to ensure that all activities are efficiently and
safely coordinated.
In other words, the job of nurse administrators involves the supervision of both
the operations and functions of the nursing staff, as well as overseeing the
administrative branch, where they focus on everything from financial aspects to human
resources and protocol compliance.
