The key areas for academic exploration are:
Strategic Planning, Marketing, Operations,
Finance and Budgeting and finally the
Business Plan which attempts to link all
managerial aspects together. The Health
Administration curriculum allows the student
to explore different aspects of management
at their own pace, while actually observing
and working in the field while leaning key
techniques to enable them to function as
leaders in the Health Administration
discipline. As the health and business
environments become more complex and
competitive, new and different skills will
require development as part of the health
administration curriculum.
A strong demand exists
for practical and valid information about
solutions to managerial problems. Our goal
is to assist in translating research
findings, theory and hands-on experience
into a form useful to the student and
practitioner.
Leaders of today and
tomorrow need both interpersonal and
analytical skills to meet their day-to-day
responsibilities found in a diversity of
work environments; including large, medium
and small as well as not-for-profit
organizations.
Effective managers are
concerned with productivity, quality and
teamwork. These three factors are the main
focus of health administration in clinical
settings and seek to involve the trainees in
mentoring, job identity and goal attainment
while meeting the needs of the organization.
The trainee will over-time begin to realize
that all these critical business elements
must be in place and work effectively before
the patient is seen and treated in the
clinical setting.
Finally, the concepts of
critical thinking, critical speaking and
critical writing are major components of the
whole management process in which the
trainee will become proficient. |
