Phase I Identifying Policy Needs, Overview of Expectations for Supervisors

Facilitating the existence of adequate healthcare staff for the hospital demands the creation of an organization wide policy. For this effort to commence, a workforce summit can be held with representatives from across all departments. There are seven major action areas where policy makers must focus. While demonstrating how the action areas can be implemented, various strategies will be given for each action area. An action must target activities relevant to all stakeholders. When compared with other healthcare facilities, the organization has limited information about the product and availability of most health disciplines. Outdated and incomplete information causes efficiently targeting resources challenging for the organization. This requires the existence of the health workforce tracking policy for gathering and analyzing workforce trends. The policy will conduct organization wide assessments of need, retention, and placement of healthcare providers. Besides, the information will be helpful to the organization and policy makers in tracking and dealing with current and emerging issues relating to workforce dynamics.

A health care supervisor will monitor, control, and organize workers and systems at the healthcare setting. The supervisor's job description incorporates obligations that guarantee that the office she or he oversees is complying with the greater part of the guidelines, policies, and protocols important to meet the facility's quality assurance standards. Such expectations incorporate the employing, assessing and when essential, the promotion and terminating of key staff members (Spencer, Wonder & Acree, 2010).

The supervisor is also expected to be especially skilled at record keeping and the nonstop monitoring of the work site, pertinent paperwork and all staff under her or his administration. Supervisors often draft and administer strict budgets. They ensure that the organization's supply stock is well equipped while using sensible measures for supplies and vital working equipment. The greater parts of these obligations are normal for supervisors while they routinely manage patient care (Harris, 2008).

While the supervisor may not perform hands-on care for patients, supervisors are eventually answerable for determining patients are receiving the best care conceivable from medical caretakers, associates and other staff members under the nursing supervisor's management. In this case, healthcare supervisors must formally meet with staff members and meet with patients and their families to address concerns relating to avoiding and solving conflicts. It is also upon the health care supervisor to convey the organization's plans to all staff members and guarantee that they comprehend what is expected of them: everybody sticks to all policies and regulations (Umiker, 2011).

The health care supervisor's ability to manage all operational areas viably is also supported in the organization with the enhancement of public relations matters. In this case, they may be required to represent the institution in group meetings or other public settings. It is accordingly imperative for the supervisor to be solid communicators who get along well with others. As a skilled professional, the supervisor is expected to be experienced and trained in many of these obligations preceding requisitioning a supervisory position. A health care supervisor might receive an average yearly compensation of $55,000 Us Dollars (USD) with some more specialized and experienced healthcare supervisor's salary being closer to $100,000 for every year (Spencer, Wonder & Acree, 2010). Pay rates shift consistent with work details and the occupation's location.

Phase II Measuring Employee Satisfaction, Reward System, Supervisory Communication Skills

Employee satisfaction has remained a striking zone of examination in the field of management especially in organizational conduct and human resource management. To some extent, it is essential for the management to investigate the welfare and well-being of their representatives like the fiscal and non-fiscal rewards. Organizational reward framework and workers' satisfaction are seen as an interrelated segment in an association. Organizational rewards are known to help an association support the representatives' motivation in this manner prompting employees' satisfaction (Bulau, 2009). Reward framework serves as the most unexpected variable in keeping representatives' self-esteem high and passionate. Subsequently, happy representatives can make happy clients. Accordingly, an association should genuinely look at the commitment of rewards itself to control the level of worker fulfillment in upholding the performance. The suggestion of rewards towards representatives' fulfillment has been characterized in numerous associations. For instance, a reward has a positive relationship to representative's motivation and satisfaction.

It is just as paramount as advancement in which worker needs to be elevated to a higher position. Payment is given to representatives in return for work performed; normally incorporate a range of values, and monitors the position and obligations performed as opposed to an individual commitment (Rosdahl & Kowalski, 2008). In terms of salary, rewards will affect the workers' fulfillment or dissatisfaction completely. Workers' satisfaction and motivation have a critical effect to advancement. Fulfillment at the work place is achievable when an individual is inspired to work. Consequently, keeping representatives motivated is a precondition for ensuring that they remain loyal to the organization.
The Importance of Fringe Benefits to Employees' Satisfaction

Many employers tend to reduce wages after some time when benefits like bonus, Medicare, and annual leave are offered to representatives. Employees consider benefits and compensation as substitutes, eager to surrender compensation for additional benefits. Fringe benefits were emphatically identified with workers' fulfillment. Some of the explanations for the turnover include low payment, insufficient fringe benefits, poor workplace conditions, poor employee morale and work attitude and deficient recruitment.

The Impact of Promotion on Employees' Satisfaction

An expansive salary increase and a timely promotion additionally cause a worker to be more qualified to the present association with organization-specific skill and training than to different employers. From the talk, an association typically offers timely promotion to the workers and watches the employees' change in the meantime. Where there is a significant reduction in either the rate or absolute increment sometime in a promotional ladder, we might anticipate that discontent, voluntary withdrawal, or both might be transformed. The workers maybe will be offered for the promotion yet the increment will not be given to them in the meantime. Many organizations can control the promotion, send indicators of stagnant career progression at the roof position, and push out the less qualified representative (Umiker, 2011). The organization might utilize this form of rewards to encourage workers to move forward while acting as a correspondence medium in advising the representatives performing poorly to move out of the organization. An improved comprehension of the Individual Career Management (ICM) procedure is essential in environments where chances of vertical advancement are rare. This is applicable where organizations are looking for elective approaches to remunerate their representatives' views for career increment.

The Link between Organizational Rewards and Employees' Satisfaction

Bonus in fringe benefits does not fundamentally affect job fulfillment in cross-section appraisals. However, fringe benefits decidedly affect job fulfillment in cross-segment estimates. Looking at the effect of fringe benefits accrual on representatives' job fulfillment, Sales people, regardless of their business specialization, need cash or money as an incentive and obtain fulfillment. In an alternate research, the use of commission motivates sales people to seek new business opportunities aggressively. Compensating sales specialists depending customer satisfaction indicate the viability of the adopted strategies of treating clients well and motivating them to stay. Most experimental studies analyzed the relationships between workers' self-reported fulfillment with pay advancement and voluntary turnover. Evidence of these linkages is not consistently certain (Bulau, 2009).

Components like low compensations and low status, developing class sizes and changes in the training framework have all helped as explanations for what has been deciphered as endemic of failure within the profession. The level of pay is connected to work and pay fulfillment. Workers exchanged a great deal of jobs on account of better prospects, higher compensation and salary, components, like the work itself, pay supervision, relationships with colleagues and chances for advancements have been discovered to help representatives' work fulfillment (Harris, 2008). Workers' fulfillment included a few separate circles, like fulfillment with pay, advancement chances, fringe benefits, job security and the challenge or the importance of the job. Consequently, diverse individuals respond to distinctive incentives hinging on the striking nature of distinct needs being fulfilled by their job lies in attractive remuneration.
