Identifying Policy Needs – Outline for Supervisors’ Policy and Procedure Manual
Creating an Overview of Expectations for Supervisors

I. Develop the outline for your Supervisors’ Policies and Procedures Manual for Supervisors.

• Your outline should reflect each of the areas your research revealed as relevant to managing and leading in the healthcare organization or facility you selected for your course project.
• For guidance in completing this assignment, search the Internet for examples of actual policies and procedures manuals for health care supervisors.
• In addition, you may seek guidance by visiting a local health care facility and interviewing one of its human resources managers, leaders, or other associated personnel.

The key is to ensure that, beyond the general policies and procedural information topics:

• You identify and incorporate issues that are not currently addressed by a formal policy but dictate the need for a formal policy.
• You may also use the topics covered in the content section of your textbook as a guide for what to include in your Supervisors’ Policies and Procedures Manual.

II. Write the introductory portion of your Supervisors’ Policies and Procedures Manual.

• This portion provides users with an overview of what is expected of them as supervisors.
