2.- Adrienne : Strategic management includes both long-term and short-term activities as it happens on an ongoing basis. When a health care facility uses strategic management, this allows them to sustain their operations with long term in mind by completing short term goals with all levels of management and employees involved. Strategic management allows the management team to create the vision, mission, and the processes of the business. As the facility environment changes, the focus can be adjusted to help accomplish the strategic goals (Contributor, 2020). By following the business plan, the set deadlines and milestones will be completed as planned while meeting your long-term strategic goals. Strategic management starts with planning the activities for the future now and making sure all departments are aligned with the same plan for success of the whole business.
Strategic management is important to the future of a health care facility as you are essentially managing every single area of the facility with the future in mind and doing the absolute best you can in all areas (Contributor, 2020). With the constant changes taking place in the health care industry today, it is wise to have an ongoing plan that will put together the strategy and mission of the facility into play. The standard strategic plan is a three-to-five-year plan with scheduled reviews taking place to ensure the progress being made is correct and changes made as the health industry grows are being added. A strategic management plan is typically made up of these four different areas:
- Analysis and assessment – allows the facility to review their current and internal environment assessment.
- Strategy formulation – the development of the strategic plan.
- Strategy execution – the translation of the plan into a plan of action.
- Evaluation – completing the elevations of the performance that has been completed.
By continuously planning, analyzing, and monitoring that all areas are meeting their projected goals, this will ensure the success of the facility in the future (The SHSMD Team, 2017). Strategic management has also provided many benefits to the health care industries as it has allowed them to be nimble, focused on performance, future results and more engaged than ever before.
