Nursing Home Administrator
HCS/320

Nursing Home Administrator Excellent communication within a health care faculty is essential! It is the communication exchange among staff members which determines the quality of care given to the patient’s. As a nursing home administrator my duties are to ensure the HIPPA rules and regulations are being upheld by members of the health care. By ensuring that HIPPA rules and regulations are upheld the health care faculty is ultimately providing the patient’s with quality care. Change within a nursing home can bring about much unwanted conflict and confusion among all parties involved. Following the chain of command can be a tedious task, there are many T’s that need to cross and I’s that need to dotted to ensure that the communications process is running smoothly and effectively, which in-turn reduces the risk of a communication breakdown. Developing a communication breakdown can much turmoil within a health care faulty ultimately jeopardizing all parties involved in the communication cycle. As the nursing home administrator my first line of duty is to get a clear understanding of the new policies and procedures being put in place and exactly how they will affect the patience’s in the nursing home. To accomplish this task I must address the new broad members with my concerns. Some of the methods I can use to address these concerns are through a traditional meeting, electronic communication, and social media. Some of the advantages of using traditional meetings are that the meeting allows members to communicate face-to-face giving them the opportunity to use many cues such as body language, facial expressions, and tone of voice to communicate their concerns. Also traditional meetings allow broad members to address their concerns firsthand with limited barriers in-between.
