The Role Of An EM Director

As a physician, give unbiased advice and support patients and their families with whatever decisions they make to their health or health care.

The management team in the healthcare environment has a very important role within their facility. There are ten managerial roles that fall within three categories. The three categories are: interpersonal roles, informational roles, and decisional roles. “A manager’s interpersonal roles involve interactions with people inside and outside the work unit. The information roles involve the giving, receiving, and analyzing of information. The decisional roles involve using information to make decisions, to solve problems, to address opportunities” (Lombardi & Schermerhorn, 2007. P. 13). Interpersonal roles involve interactions with people inside and outside the unit. Informational roles of a health care manager involve giving, receiving, and analyzing information.   Finally, the decisional roles of a health care manger involve using information for decision making, problem solving, and addressing opportunities (Lombardi & Schermerhorn, 2007. P. 13). Of all these different roles, I believe the most important role is the interpersonal role. The

Medical assistants are cross-trained to perform clinical duties such as coding and filling out insurances forms for the physicians (AAMA, 1996). They handle correspondence, billing, and bookkeeping (AAMA, 1996). They assist the physicians during exams and prepare and administer medication as directed by a physician (AAMA, 1996). Medical assistants also remove sutures and change dressings (AAMA, 1996). Medical assistants are essential members of the health department.

This type of work does not require a high level of education, but it does require supervision to ensure the job is being completed correctly. In compare, a manager may supervise health care professional, who have been trained to act independently, make most of their own decision, and determine most of their own behavior, and example would be nurses or doctors. They have a higher level of education that is required to complete the job, but often require the most general direction. A human resource manager of the health care organization employees may require regular supervision, but also must have a higher level of education to complete the daily job duties. Basic or little to no education would not get the job done, but would not require the level of education that health care physician’s need to do their job.

Medical directors of the physician groups will be responsible for ensuring education and compliance of staff to the policy.

During my time with them, I was able to differentiate between the functions, roles, and responsibilities of healthcare managers, while working with the following managerial positions. I was able to view them carry out various management functions of planning—closing of a pharmacy, getting annual goals for annual merits, discuss implementation of FY18 strategic planning, staffing--interviews, directing—manager/leadership meetings and staff meetings, controlling—weekly safety huddles addressing patient safety events, addressing staff concerns, and addressing staff behavior, and decision making—completing daily tasks and going to

As directed by a physician, they might instruct patients about medications and special diets, prepare and administer medications, authorize drug refills, telephone prescriptions to a pharmacy, draw blood, prepare patients for x rays, take electrocardiograms, remove sutures, and change dressings. Medical assistants also may arrange examining room instruments and equipment, purchase and maintain supplies and equipment, and keep waiting and examining...

When planning a curriculum, a designer or program planner has three very important aspects, foundations, and vision to ensure are in place. They are program goals, program objectives, and program outcomes. The following speaks to the differences and relationships not only between program goals, objectives, and outcomes but provides insight of each in the specific instance of a curriculum for teaching staff how to teach patients.

When I take a step back and look at the endless opportunities I will have as a Physician Assistant (PA) it truly amazes me. There are so many areas of clinical practice to choose from and at this point in my education as a PA student I am still unsure of where I will end up. However, the area of practice that I am currently most drawn to is emergency medicine (EM). What draws me to EM is that it is face-paced and team-oriented. In addition, not only do you get to see a variety of patients, but you also see a variety of diseases and injuries. This being the specialty that is of most interest to me, it is important that I understand what exactly being an EM PA encompasses.

Administrators must be able to learn and lead when regulations and laws change so that the medical organizations they lead are in legal working order. Finance management of costs for the facility and patient billing to creating work schedules are just a few of the duties and administrator is found doing on a daily basis (O*Net Sites, 2015). It is standard for an administrator to spend part of his or her time communicating with physicians and staff. Evaluating staff procedures along with quality assurance helps keep medical facilities within safety guidelines so patients get the best care possible (O*Net Sites, 2015). This being said this profession carries a lot of responsibility to those they lead but also to

Although some clinicians can do it all, the skills set and knowledge needed to supervise a healthcare facility administratively may be far different from that needed to provide effective clinical supervision. To determine these differences and their implications for practice, this paper provides a review of the relevant literature to identify the difference between administrative and clinical supervision and the respective purpose, rights of the supervisee, and the importance of supervisor competence. A summary of the research and important findings are presented in the conclusion.

The program-centered administrative consultation has just one goal and it is to construct a new program or improve an existing one with the help of an individual or group of consultees.
