For this assignment, imagine you have just started working as the new CEO of a rural health care facility that has 60 acute primary care hospital beds and 120 skilled nursing facility beds. The skilled nursing facility has long-term and transitional care beds. The health care institution is accredited. Your current task is to prepare a presentation for strategic planning for the Board of Directors at the upcoming monthly meeting. Background and Demographics Health care services in the community include a 24/7 emergency department in the hospital. There is also an outpatient surgery center located about 10 miles away from the hospital that performs a high percentage of cataract surgeries and also offers diagnostic radiology services as well as laboratory services, a behavioral health center, home health services, hospice services, and a birthing center, which was added to the hospital about 20 years ago. The health care institution has served three communities for over 40 years. The population of all three communities comprises about 60,000 people. The median age for two of the communities averages 42-43 years old. The other community averages 25 years old and includes a military base that has its own hospital on base. The average family size is just over three for all communities, Overall, about 47% of the population is married. There are almost three million visitors who come to visit a National Park that is a tourist attraction in the community. In past years, the acute hospital had a reputation as a \"band-aid" station, which was undeserved as it has excellent staff and equipment. Your plan might consider ways that you, as the CEO, can work with the community leaders to change this impression. It has also been difficult to recruit qualified physicians to the area. The next closest competing health care institution is located 35 miles away, offers 385 beds, and is the only Level Il Trauma Center in the area. TIP: If you need further data and demographics, you can create hypothetical information.
