The health care team is at the “sharp end” of service
delivery. Members of the health care team are most qualified to analyze
problems, generate solutions, and implement and evaluate change. Teamwork is
vital to the success of the health care system. Health care administrators must
know how to form highly functioning health care teams.
Consider the following scenario:
Mr. Smith was admitted to the hospital for surgery on his
left knee. When Mr. Smith woke up from the anesthesia, he realized that his
right knee had been operated on. You have been asked to form a team to analyze
this wrong-site surgery.
In light of this situation, write a two to three page paper
(excluding title and reference pages) in which you address the questions below.
Be sure to include a minimum of two scholarly sources from the Ashford
University Library and format your paper according to APA guidelines as
outlined in the Ashford Writing Center.
1. Who would you have on your team? Why did you select these
individuals?
2. What steps would you take to foster open communication?
What team dynamics might exist that could interfere with open communication?
