PLANNING the selection and sequential ordering of tasks required to achieve an organizational goal.- pre determining a course of action in order to arrive at a desired result.Concerned with defining goals for future organizational performance and deciding on the tasks and resources to be used in order to attain those goals.Deciding in advance what to do, how to do a particular task, when to do it and who is to do it.NURSING MANAGEMENT PROCESS

  • COMPONENTS OF PLANNING

  • GOOD PLANNING involves a continous process of assessment of goals and objectives, implementation and evaluation of change as new facts become known.PROCESS OF GOOD PLANNING

    A well plan is half done

  • POOR PLANNINGIs the failure to set goals make assessments or provide for implementation or to anticipate any possible change in circumstances. INDICATORS OF POOR PLANNINGDelivery dates are not metMachines are idleMaterial is wastedSome nurses are overworked, others are underworkedSkilled nurses doing unskilled workNurses are fumbling on jobs for which they have not been trainedThere is quarreling, bickering, buck-passing and confusion.

    Failing to plan is planning to fail

  • PLANIs a living document which can be changed based on the prevailing circumstances.PRINCIPLES OF PLANNINGPlanning is always based & focused on the vision, mission, philosophy & clearly defined objective of the organization.Planning is a continous process.Planning should be pervasive within the entire organization.Planning utilizes all available resourcesPlanning must be precise in its scope & naturePlanning should be time- boundedProjected plans must be documented

  • IMPORTANCE OF PLANNING

    Planning leads to the achievement of goals & objectives.Planning gives meaning to work.Planning provides for effective use of available resources.Planning helps in coping with crises.Planning is cost-effective.Planning is based on past & future activities.Planning leads to the realization of the need to change.Planning provides basis for control.Planning is necessary for effective control .

  • CHARACTERISTICS OF A GOOD PLANBe precise with clearly- worded objective, including desired results & method for evaluation.Be guided by policies, procedures affecting the planned action.Indicate priorities.Develop actions that are flexible & realistic in terms of avail. Personnel, equipment, facilities & time.Develop a logical sequence of activities & time.Include the most practical methods for achieving each objective.Pervade the whole organization.

  • PROCEDURES are defined as a more specific guide to action than policy.Nursing ProceduresExample: Discharge of Patient

  • ORGANIZING-it is the process of establishing formal authority.-it involves setting up the organizational structure through identification of groupings, roles & relationships.-it includes developing job descriptions by defining the qualifications and functions of personnel.

  • STRATEGIC PLANNING PROCESSMISSION outlines the purpose (aim) of the agency ( provides health care )Allows everyone to understand why an organization existsA call to live out something that matters or is meaningful.It is the soul of an organization

  • ORGANIZATIONAL CHART is a line drawing that shows how the parts of an organization are linked.

    ELEMENTS OF ORGANIZINGSetting up the organizational structure- facilitates the development of roles & relationships to enable the achievement of goals.

  • ORGANIZATIONAL STRUCTURE refers to the process by which a group is formed, its channels of authority, span of control & lines of communication. is a process in which a group is formed including its Authority, Responsibility and Accountability ( ARA), span of control, and lines of communication.

  • PURPOSES OF SETTING UP AN ORGANIZATIONAL STRUCTUREIt informs members of their responsibilities so that they may carry them out.It allows the manager & the individual workers to concentrate on his/her specific role & responsibilities.It coordinates all organizational activities so there is minimal duplication of effort or conflict.It reduces the chances of doubt & confusion concerning assignments.It avoids overlapping of functions because it pinpoints responsibilities.It shows to whom & for whom the are responsible.

  • CHARACTERISTICS OF ORGANIZATIONAL CHARTDIVISION OF WORK each box represents the individual or sub-unit responsible for a given task of the organizations work load.CHAIN OF COMMAND lines indicate who reports to whom and by what authority.Type of Work to be performed indicated by labels or descriptions for the boxes.Grouping of Work Segments shown by the clusters of work groups.Levels of Management indicate individual & entire management hierarchy.

  • PRINCIPLES OF ORGANIZING1. UNITY OF COMMAND refers to the structure an employee has one superior & there is only one manager or leader.2. SCALAR PRINCIPLES OF HIERARCHY- authority & responsibility flow in clear lines from the highest executive to the lowest.3. HOMOGENEOUS ASSIGNMENT/ DEPARTMENTATION workers performing similar assignments are grouped together for a common purpose.

  • PRINCIPLES OF ORGANIZINGSPAN OF CONTROL member of workers that a supervisor can effectively manage.EXCEPTION PRINCIPLE recurring decisions should be handled in a routine manner by lower level managers; whereas problems involving unusual matters should be referred to higher level.DECENTRALIZATION/ PROPER DELEGATION OF AUTHORITY process of conferring specified decision making to the lower levels of the organization.

  • PATTERNS OF ORGANIZATIONAL STRUCTURETALL OR CENTRALIZED STRUCTURE/ VERTICAL It is when the span of control is narrow and there are many management levels & there are many managers. - Responsible for only a few subordinates, so there is a narrow span of control- There are many levels of communication.

  • ADVANTAGES OF TALL STRUCTUREThe quality of performance will improve due to close supervision.Discipline will improve.Superior - Subordinate relations will improve.Control and Supervision will become easy and convenient.The manager gets more time to plan and organize the future activities.The efforts of subordinates can be easily coordinated.Tall Organization encourages development of staff.There is mutual trust between superior and subordinates.

  • DISADVANTAGES OF TALL STRUCTURETall Organization creates many levels of management.There are many delays and distortion in communication.Decisions and actions are delayed.It is very costly because there are many managers. The managers are paid high salaries.It is difficult to coordinate the activities of different levels.There is strict supervision. So the subordinates do not have any freedom.Tall Organisation is not suitable for routine and standardized jobs.Here, managers may became more dominating.

  • SAMPLE OF TALL STRUCTURE

  • 2. FLAT OR DECENTRALIZED/ HORIZONTAL STRUCTURECharacterized by fewer levels and a broad span of controlDecision- making is spread among many people.Communication from lower to higher levels is easy and direct.is characterized by fewer levels of management, low burearucratic costs, higher motivation of employees (empowerment), more communication between managers and employees

  • ADVANTAGES OF FLAT STRUCTUREFlat Organization is less costly because it has only few managers.It creates fewer levels of management.Quick decisions and actions can be taken because it has only a few levels of management.Fast and clear communication is possible among these few levels of management.Subordinates are free from close and strict supervision and control.It is more suitable for routine and standardized activities.Superiors may not be too dominating because of large numbers of subordinates.

  • DISADVANTAGES OF FLAT STRUCTUREThere are chances of loose control because there are many subordinates under one manager.The discipline in the organization may be bad due to loose control.The relations between the superiors and subordinates may be bad. Close and informal relations may not be possible.There may be problems of team work because there are many subordinates under one manager.Flat organization structure may create problems of coordination between various subordinates.

  • Efficient and experienced superiors are required to manage a large number of subordinates.It may not be suitable for complex activities.The quality of performance may be bad

    DISADVANTAGES OF FLAT STRUCTURE

  • SAMPLE OF FLAT ORGANIZATION STRUCTURE

  • TYPES OF ORGANIZATIONAL STRUCTURE1. LINE ORGANIZATION/ BUREAUCRATIC/ PYRAMIDALThis structure shows each position general authority over the lower position in the hierarchy.Commonly found in large health care facility.Clearly defined superior-subordinate relationshipARA and power are concentrated at the top

  • 2. FLAT ORGANIZATION/ HORIZONTALIt is a decentralized type.Flattened scalar chain and fewer levels of positionUsed for less complex organizations with authority decentralized and with several managers supervising large work groups.Applicable only in smaller organizations or units within larger organizations

  • 3. STAFF ORGANIZATION is by nature purely advisory to the line structure with no authority to place recommendations into action.FUNCTIONAL ORGANIZATION permits a specialist to aid line position within a limited and clearly defined scope of authority.AD HOC ORGANIZATION modification of the bureaucratic structure and is used as a temporary basis to facilitate completion of a project within a formal line organization.

  • MATRIX ORGANIZATION designed to focus on both products and function. It has both the vertical and horizontal chain of command. - it is the most complex organizational structure.

  • SHARED GOVERNANCE ORGANIZATION one of the most radical and idealistic type of organizational structure developed in 1980s as an alternative to traditional pyramidal/ centralized structure.8. LATERAL ORGANIZATION is one of coordination & colaboration between and among nursing staff and hospital staff.

  • II. STAFFINGIs the process of determining & providing the acceptable number and mix of nursing personnel to produce a desired level of care to meet the patients demand.The process of assigning competent people to fill the roles designated for the organizational structure through recruitment, selection & development.

  • STEPS IN STAFFINGDetermine the number & types of personnel needed.Recruit personnelInterviewInduct or orient the personnelJob offfer

  • STAFFING PATTERNIs a plan that articulate how many & what kind of staff are needed by shift & day to staff in a unit or department.PATIENT CLASSIFICATION SYSTEM ( PCS ) a measurement tool used to articulate the nursing workload for a specific patient or group of patients over a specific period of time.

  • PATIENT ACUITY measurement of nursing workload that is generated for each patient.PATIENT CARE CLASSIFICATION SELF CARE OR MINIMAL CARE PATIENTS are capable of carrying activities of daily living ( ADL) INTERMEDIATE OR MODERATE CARE requires some help from nursing staff with special treatment or certain aspects of personal care

  • TOTAL CARE PATIENTS are usually those who are bedridden & who lack strength & mobility to do average daily living.INTENSIVE CARE PATIENTS are those who are critically ill and in constant danger of death or serious injury.

  • NURSING CARE MODELSIs the framework for nursing care delivery in any setting or design that meets the particular needs of a group of health care givers & clients.THE CASE METHOD OR TOTAL PATIENT CARE- original model of nursing care delivery- RN is responsible for all aspects of care of one or more patients.

  • CASE METHOD / TOTAL PATIENT CARE- the complete care includes treatment, medications & NCP.- RN gives total patient care within her shift.ADVANTAGE:RN can better see & attend to the total needs of clients & the continuity of care can be facilitated with ease.Clients interaction & rapport with the nurse are well developed & clients needs are monitored

  • DISADVANTAGES:RN spend more time doing tasks that could be done more cost effectively by less skilled person.

  • SAMPLE OF TOTAL PATIENT CARE

  • 2. THE FUNCTIONAL METHODAlso called as task NursingDeveloped in response to national shortage in 1940sThis gave way to widespread use of LPN & UAP to deliver nursing care.Needs of a group of patients are broken down into tasks, which are assigned to RNs, LPNs, UAPs.

  • FUNCTIONAL METHODThis method is task & procedure oriented.Used wherein there are too many patients in proportion to available RN.Nurses are assigned to different functions such as VS, Tx, medication

  • ADVANTAGES :Nurses who are oriented this way become skilled in performing assigned tasks.Individual aptitude & experience improves.Less equipment is neeeded.Time is saveTask- oriented approach improves both productivity & organization

  • DISADVANTAGES:Patients cannot identify who their nurse is

  • 3. TEAM NURSINGIt evolved from functional nursing.Team nursing personnel provides total patient care to a group of patients.Comprehensive nursing care becomes the responsibility of the entire team.

  • ADVANTAGES:

    The constant group work fosters a feeling of participation and belongingnessThe workload is balanced and shared with the division of laborEach member of the team has the opportunity to learn from colleaguesThere is also a variety in the daily assignmentHelps maintain interest in clients well being and is cost effective.Patient is able to identify personnel due to the continuity of careBarriers between clients and nurses can be minimizedEveryone gets to contribute to the care plan

  • SAMPLE OF TEAM NURSING

  • 4. PRIMARY NURSING METHODWas designed to place RN back at the patients bedside.Decentralized decision-making by staff nurses is the core principle of this method with ARA for nursing care allocated to staff nurses at the bedside.This method represents total nursing care directed by a nurse on a 24 hour basis from the moment of admission to discharge with ARA

  • ADVANTAGES:Nurse sees the client and family as one system an ARA is increased.Nurse uses a wide range of skills, knowledge and expertise an develops creativityIncreases trust and satisfaction by the clientsExcellent communication between the primar nurse an associate nursesPrimary nurses are able to hold associate nurses accountable for implementing nursing care as prescribed.

  • DISADVANTAGECritically ill patients may have several primary care nurses because of transfers to different units that may disrupt the continuity of care inherent in the model.

  • PatientOther health providerPRIMARY NURSECharge NurseAssociate NurseAssociate Nurse

  • 5. CASE MANAGEMENT METHODModel for identifying, coordinating and monitoring the implementation of services needed to achieve desired patient care outcomes within a specified period of time.Care is directed by a case manager focused on achievement of outcome and appropriate time frame and resources.Used to organize patient care according to diagnoses.

  • Case ManagerPatient CaseloadCaregiversCaregiversCaregivers

  • 6. PRACTICE PARTNERSHIPIn this model, the RN & assistant agree to be practice partners.They work together with the same schedule and the same group of patients.It is an efficient way of using a mixture of skills of professionals & non- professional staff with differing levels of expertise.

  • ADVANTAGE:Offer more continuity of care and accountability for patient careLess expensive for the organization and more satisfying personally for the partners.DISADVANTAGE:Tends to decrease the ratio of professional nurses to non- professional staffThere is the potential for the junior member of the team to assume more responsibility than may be appropriate

  • RNPARTNERPATIENTS

  • GUIDELINES FOR DETERMINING THE NURSING PERSONNEL NEEDEDSTEP 1 Determine type of hospital whether it is primary, secondary or tertiarySTEP 2 Find the total number of nursing care hours ( NCH ) needed by the patients at each category level.STEP 3 Categorize patients according to levels of care.

  • FULL TIME EQUIVALENT ( FTE )It is the formula that uses nursing care hours and annual hours of work provided by one Full Time Equivalent. It is a measure of the work commitment of a full-time employee.Full time employee works 5 days a week or 40 hours per week for 52 weeks a year.FORMULA:X = total Nursing care hours x days in a year total annual hours per one FTE

  • FORTY HOUR WEEK LAWThis formula is based on the National league of Nurses or R.A. 5901 otherwise known as the Forty Hour Week LawFORMULA ;ABO X NCH= TOTAL NUMBER OF PERSONNEL IN 24 HOURSNo. Of working Hrs.

  • FORTY HOUR/ WEEK for personnel working in hospitals with 100 bed capacity or over or which are located in a 1 Million population in the community.48 HOURS / week for personnel who work in agencies with lesser bed capacity or which are located in communities with less the 1 M population.

  • STAFFING FORMULA1. Categorize the patients according to levels of care needed.250 x .30 = 75 patients needing minimal care250 x .45 = 112.5 pts. Needing moderate care250 x .15 = 37.5 pts need intensive care250 x .01 = 25 pts. Need highly specialized care

  • 2. Find the number of nursing care hours (NCH ) needed by patients at each level of care per day.75 pts. X 1.5 ( NCH needed at Level I )=112.5 NCH/ DAY112.5 pts. X 3 ( NCH needed at Level II )=337.5 NCH/ DAY37.5 pts. X 4.5 ( NCH needed at Level III) = 168.75 NCH/DAY25 pts x 6 ( NCH needed at Level IV ) = 150 NCH/ DAYTOTAL 768.75 NCH/DAY

  • Find the total NCH needed by 250 patients per year768.75 x 365 ( days/year ) = 280,593.75 NCH/yr.Find the actual working hours rendered by each nursing personnel per year.8 (hrs/day) x 213 ( working days/yr)= 1,704 ( working hrs/yr)

  • Find the total number of nursing personnel needed.a. Total NCH /yr = 280, 593.75working hrs./ yr. 1, 704 = 165b. Reliever x total nsg. personnelDivide 33( ave. Number of days an employee is absent per year) by the number of working days per year that each employee serves.

  • 165 x .15 = 25 ( relievers needed )c. Total nursing personnel needed165 + 25 = 190 6. Categorize to professional & non- professional personnel. 190 x .65 = 124 prof. 190 x .35 = 66 non prof.

  • 7. Distribute by shifts124 nurses x .45 = 56 nurses on AM shift124 nurses x .37 = 46 nurses on PM shift124 nurses x .18 = 22 nurses on night shift

    66 attendants x .45 = 30 AM SHIFT66 attendants x . 37 = 24 PM shift66 attendants x .18 = 12 night shift

  • III. SCHEDULINGIt is a timetable showing planned work days & shifts for nursing personnel.FACTORS TO CONSIDER IN MAKING SCHEDULEDifferent levels of nursing staff.Adequate coverage for 24 /7.Staggered vacations & holidays.Long stretches & consecutive working days.Cross training/ orientation to complimentary units

  • TYPES OF SCHEDULINGCENTRALIZED one person, usually the Chief nurse or her designate, assigns the nursing personnel.DECENTALIZED shift & off duties are arranged by supervising nurse or Head or Senior Nurse of the particular unit.3. SELF SCHEDULING a staff or unit collectively decides & implements the monthly work scheduleADVANTAGES:- increases job satisfaction- cooperative spirit/ teamwork- decrease absenteesm- decrease personnel turn-overDISADVANTAGES:- increases amount of time staff may spend on scheduling

  • 4.ROTATING WORK SHIFT scheduling system that involves frequency of alternating between days & nights or 3 shift within 7 days.5. PERMANENT SHIFT refers to regularity of duties of staff.6. BLOCK OR CYCLICAL SCHEDULE - refers to the repetition of the same schedule.

  • A four- week cyclical schedule
