Study a facility in your area and examine its Web site and any available public documents to aid you in completing this assessment. You may wish to examine an organization where you work, where you have worked in the past, or where you did your clinical work.

Use the following scenario as the basis for your report:
Scenario
The unit-based Shared Governance Council of the organization where you work has identified a major nursing-related challenge (patient/staff safety, confidentiality, management/staff conflict, poor patient satisfaction survey scores, or nursing staff shortages) within your health care organization.
In an unusual move, your system administrator is considering creating a new nurse leadership position that would have the responsibility and authority to address this specific issue. As a member of the shared governance council’s subcommittee, you have been asked to write the committee’s final report.
Deliverable: Impact Report to Senior Leadership
Write a 4–5-page Impact Report to senior leadership that identifies the challenge, analyzes how it affects the organization from a nursing perspective, and details the new position.
Use systems thinking and leadership theory as tools to approach this problem.
Construct the report with the following headings:
The Nursing Challenge:
Identify the nursing challenge and its impact from a nursing perspective. Choose from:
Patient/staff safety, confidentiality, management/staff conflict, poor patient satisfaction survey scores, or nursing staff shortages.
The System/Organization:
Explain how the nursing challenge creates a gap or conflict between the organization’s statements and practice.
Identify the organization type, that is, specialty hospital, teaching hospital, major health care system, et cetera, and summarize the organizational structure, its mission, vision, and philosophy statements.
Use systems theory and systems thinking to explain the gap or conflict.
SWOT Analysis:
Use the SWOT Analysis Template linked in Required Resources and include the SWOT analysis table in your paper.
Identify organizational factors that impact the situation using a SWOT analysis.
For example, a budget cut may cause short staffing, which relates directly to the problem.
What factors within the system may facilitate a solution for this problem?
The Position:
Assess how the new nurse leader position will have power and influence and impact patient outcomes.
How will this position affect change within the organization?
Identify key leadership skills, knowledge, or abilities required for the position.
Additional Requirements
Written communication: Written communication should be free of errors that detract from the overall message.
APA formatting: Resources and in-text citations should be formatted according to current APA style and formatting.
Length: The report should be 4–5 pages in content length. Include a separate title page and a separate reference page.
Font and font size: Times New Roman, 12 point, double-spaced.
Number of resources: Use a minimum of three peer-reviewed resources
PLEASE USR PROPER APA FORMAT AND INCORPORATE SWOT ANALYSIS AS NEEDED AND NO MORE THAN 5 PAGES PLEASE
You must proofread your paper. But do not strictly rely on your computer’s spell-checker and grammar-checker; failure to do so indicates a lack of effort on your part and you can expect your grade to suffer accordingly. Papers with numerous misspelled words and grammatical mistakes will be penalized. Read over your paper – in silence and then aloud – before handing it in and make corrections as necessary. Often it is advantageous to have a friend proofread your paper for obvious errors. Handwritten corrections are preferable to uncorrected mistakes.
Use a standard 10 to 12 point (10 to 12 characters per inch) typeface. Smaller or compressed type and papers with small margins or single-spacing are hard to read. It is better to let your essay run over the recommended number of pages than to try to compress it into fewer pages.
Likewise, large type, large margins, large indentations, triple-spacing, increased leading (space between lines), increased kerning (space between letters), and any other such attempts at “padding” to increase the length of a paper are unacceptable, wasteful of trees, and will not fool your professor.
The paper must be neatly formatted, double-spaced with a one-inch margin on the top, bottom, and sides of each page. When submitting hard copy, be sure to use white paper and print out using dark ink. If it is hard to read your essay, it will also be hard to follow your argument.
