Assignment Guidance
The following are examples of what you should consider in your essay:
- Define the roles and responsibilities of healthcare managers in terms of skills and applications within healthcare organisations. You may also like to include a definition of an organisation. Remember that responsibilities are to stakeholders and the organisation aims and objectives so these will need to be analysed and discussed.
- Discuss management skills and the challenges and barriers to implementing strategies and carrying out the role day to day.
- Describe management systems, strategies and processes for complying with organisational policy, legislation and other regulatory and non- regulatory requirements within healthcare contexts.
Remember the essay format from the essay plan activity; use clear headings to signpost each section and ensure work is evidence-based throughout with correctly formatted citations and end references.
You will draw on all unit concepts for this final essay and include a connection to management theory, principles and strategies.
Use Harvard Referencing.
