Every organization has its stakeholders, irrespective of its size, nature, structure and purpose. The stakeholders can be any person or entity, who influence and can be influenced by the organization’s activities. Stakeholders can be categorized as internal and external stakeholders. Those who works with in the organization are known as internal stakeholder. Physicians, nurses and hospital management in my case are internal stakeholders. External stakeholders are those not employed by hospital but they have a say in hospital operations such as Licensing or Accreditation agencies like (Joint Commission), patients,policy makers, labor unions and care givers. Change is often difficult to implement because of inertia and so many competing interests. Certain elements must be in place in an organization for change to take hold: an agreed-on direction for the practice, a functional and effective leadership structure, and a culture that promotes and rewards change.
Comment2
Stakeholder buy-in is the glue that binds all elements of a project together and ensures that the change will actually happen”.( May, 2016). It is important to have the backing of the decision makers/stakeholders both within and outside of an organization to successfully push a change project through because:
They will provide expertise from their wealth of knowledge about current process, historical information and way forward, thereby, bringing value to the project.
They will help reduce or uncover risks involved in change project process in terms of project needs, constraints and plans to mitigate those problems as they arise to increase the chances of project success.
They help to increase the success of the project by speeding up the process, providing resources and creating the support needed to move change forward.
Finally, they have the power and authority to grant the project acceptance. (Schoenhard, 2017).

Health care delivery and the organizations that provide it, manage it, and reimburse for it are growing at an explosive rate. As part of this trend, the growth in the allied health job sector is expected to grow significantly, with job growth projections in the 40% plus range for the period 2012-2022 (according to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, 2012).
Expansive growth is a response to current and predicted need for services, and while encouraging, sustained, and rapid growth will inevitably impact safety, risk management, and quality provision on scales not yet seen by health care organizations.

After reading the following scenario decide whether Mr. Howe made the right decision in regard to his ailing wife. Describe the factors you considerd in in reaching your decision?
An elderly Florida man was in jail after he said he fatally shot his ailing wife because her medications were no longer affordable and she was in pain. William Howe, 86, was being held without bond after telling authorities that he had shot his wife in the head as she slept that morning in their home according to an affidavit. Mr. Howe called the 911 emergency line several hours after the fatal shooting. Howe told authorities that after the shooting he went to the kitchen for a cup of coffee, and called his daughters to tell them what he had done.
“I want to apologize I didn’t call earlier. I wanted to tell my kids what happened first,” Howe told authorities. Howe told authorities that he had been thinking of killing his wife, 84, for several days because she was in pain, the affidavit said. Howe said she had told him that she wanted to die in the past, and she had asked him to kill her, according to the affidavit.
A dispatcher at the County Sheriff’s Office said Howe remained in jail on a charge of first-degree, premeditated murder after an initial court appearance.
A local broadcaster reported that the couple had filed for bankruptcy in 2016 and that Carolyn Howe had been suffering from severe arthritis and other medical issues for at least 15 years. The AARP, a non-profit advocacy organization for people 50 years and older, said in a report last November that increasing costs for certain specialty prescription drugs have put them out of reach for many people and that Medicare does not necessarily make those drugs affordable. Authorities did not say what specific drugs Mrs. Howe was taking nor what kind of insurance the couple may have had. A search of records at the Florida Department of Law Enforcement does not show a prior criminal history for Mr. Howe.

The practice of health care providers at all levels brings you into contact with people from a variety of faiths. This calls for knowledge and acceptance of a diversity of faith expressions.
The purpose of this paper is to complete a comparative ethical analysis of George’s situation and decision from the perspective of two worldviews or religions: Christianity and a second religion of your choosing. For the second faith, choose a faith that is unfamiliar to you. Examples of faiths to choose from include Sikh, Baha’i, Buddhism, Shintoism, etc.
In your comparative analysis, address all of the worldview questions in detail for Christianity and your selected faith. Refer to Chapter 2 of Called to Care for the list of questions. Once you have outlined the worldview of each religion, begin your ethical analysis from each perspective.
In a minimum of 1,500-2,000 words, provide an ethical analysis based upon the different belief systems, reinforcing major themes with insights gained from your research, and answering the following questions based on the research:
How would each religion interpret the nature of George’s malady and suffering? Is there a “why” to his disease and suffering? (i.e., is there a reason for why George is ill, beyond the reality of physical malady?)
In George’s analysis of his own life, how would each religion think about the value of his life as a person, and value of his life with ALS?
What sorts of values and considerations would each religion focus on in deliberating about whether or not George should opt for euthanasia?
Given the above, what options would be morally justified under each religion for George and why?
Finally, present and defend your own view.
Support your position by referencing at least three academic resources (preferably from the GCU Library) in addition to the course readings, lectures, the Bible, and the textbooks for each religion. Each religion must have a primary source included. A total of six references are required according to the specifications listed above. Incorporate the research into your writing in an appropriate, scholarly manner.
