Introduction of Firm
The case study discusses Los Rayos’s medical center high turnover rate and low morale displayed amongst their nursing staff, which had led to a crisis amongst their nursing staff. While
the medical center continues to work diligently and stand by their mission statement to provide quality care, the shortage in staff members is taking a toll on the center.
This case study describes Los Rayos a medical center that is in a nurse crisis not only for their high turn-over rate but for their low morale among its nursing staff. Although the hospital works
diligently to provide quality care to its patients it is failing in many areas due to understaffed and overworked nursing staff. Mandated to keep up government regulations, the hospital understands
the importance of not compromising quality even though it has had to minimize quantity in staff.
The hospital requires nurses to come up with strategies to be implemented to help improve not only working conditions and quality control but patient care and ideas to help increase personal job performance. Over the last eight years the hospital has enforced some of the changes suggested but it finds itself still with the issue of nurses who feel that they are overextending themselves. Nursing staff is still in the position of trying to keep up with the demand of continuous educational conditioning and development while performing on the job tasks in addition to extra curricular activities.
Overview of Firm Competitive Advantage
In order to have a firm competitive advantage an organization has to possess something unique that its competition does not have. What makes one different from another? This question is what
separates groups and classes and makes one stand out among the rest. At Los Rayos they have qualified staff just not enough of it. Partnering with another major medical facility was a good business move as it can serve the purpose of showing Los Rayos ways it can improve on its functions within the facility. A normal turnover rate for hospitals is at 14% while Los Rayos is at 21%. Changes in an industry can affect bases and balance among it (Porter, 1985). Job satisfaction will make the difference on the advantage another medical facility will gain when nurses are looking upon where they would like to settle for a career. Some nurses will take a salary cut or drive further in order to work within a medical facility that offers them more than an
opportunity to use their credentials. As the medical environment is forever changing one thing that may give a hospital a firm competitive advantage would be their values. Having an expectation of learning within the organization lets nursing staff know that they will be encouraged and required to continue to advance in their field and stay current on all resources and advancements in medicine. Having a competitive advantage means that you make it more difficult for competition and shake up the level playing field. According to Michael Porter (1985), if an organization can achieve and maintain differentiation they will be an above average performer in their industry and exceed competition. In order to be successful in this strategy Los Rayos will have to identify attributes and qualities among their nursing staff that are different from their rivals who are the organizations who benefit from their high turnover rate. They need to identify the factors that contribute the turnovers and come up solutions to keep nursing staff from leaving and also keep staff happy on the job.
Problem statement
The problem with Los Rayos medical facility is management does not resourcefully use staff, which leads to a high number in turnovers. The facility is understaffed and overworked and they
promoted housekeepers to health techs and provided no skill training leaving nurses to double work as they would need to perform the patient care tasks that the “health techs: were promoted to do. The hospital also dropped moral amongst staff as they took away appreciation events such as the employee picnic and Christmas party that gives staff something to look forward to every year. It is highly noted that when employees feel they are appreciated on the job it reflects in their job performance. The hospital reduced its nursing staff to double patients per nurse and increased shifts from 8 hour to 12 hour. This tedious and exhausting work schedule not only creates a hostile work environment
as staff are reluctant to go the extra mile or over achieve for patients and colleagues. The hospital requires a lot from its nursing staff and where a raise or an on the job leisure activity would have compensated for the tedious job detail, management has taken those tokens away.
Alternative Solutions/Opportunities
a.) Create a rewards system to retain staff
–there should be a work environment where staff have materials and training to properly perform tasks and should be awarded for productive performance. Evaluations should be done quarterly on staff to review job performance and adhere to what can be done better but also praise what has been done successfully. During this process not only is staff being rewarded for their accomplishments but also they acquire new knowledge and education that helps expand their skill and personal development.
i) Build moral in the workplace
ii) Cause discord among staff
b.) Regular Shifts- Staff has become overwhelmed by the hours they spend on the job. If
they had shorter shifts they would have time to reprogram and detox and come back refreshed eliminating turnover and burnouts
i.) Gives staff a chance to unwind from a days work and not have to report right back for duty
ii) Staff may call out or take more time off with shorter shifts
Decision and Support
In order to create a work environment that constantly develops nurse’s skills so that they can efficiently perform job tasks management needs to create a rewards system to help retain staff. Management has to recognize the nurse’s core commitment is to provide quality care to their patients and they need to help reduce job related stress by ensuring that supporting staff such as health techs are properly trained and skilled in work related duties. Nurses need to feel important, valued, and appreciated by their organization, as they love their job and they just want
working conditions to improve.

DELEGATIONThis case study is based on a real life medicolegal issue resulting in a lawsuit against a nurse. In this case study, we will examine proper delegation of nursing tasks to unlicensed assistive personnel (UAP).A registered nurse (RN) employed by a home healthcare agency. The RN received a call from the certified nursing assistant (CNA) that the patient’s gastrointestinal tube (G-tube) had somehow been dislodged. Because the RN was not immediately available to assess the patient, she instructed the CNA to have the patient transported to the emergency department (ED) to be evaluated and have the G-tube reinserted.The family did not want to make a trip to the ED and the CNA informed the RN that she was experienced in replacing dislodged G-tube due to her previous 10 years of experience at a nursing home. The RN agreed to allow the CNA to replace the G-tube, which the CNA promptly did. She subsequently informed the RN that placement of the G-tube was easy and that she had…

Sense of duty and compassion versus hospital safety protocols
A nurse mentor in Nurse2Nurse Network told me about a nurse working in a COVID unit who has lingering feelings of guilt and self-doubt about a decision she was forced to make between her sense of duty and compassion for a dying patient and the demands of hospital safety protocols.
She was at the bedside of a patient whose death was imminent but taking longer than anticipated to transpire. The nurse had made a promise to the patient and the family that the patient would not be alone at the time of death.
However, because of the prolonged nature of that passing, she had been at the bedside far longer than allowed under the guidelines the hospital had adopted to protect nurses from extended exposure to the virus.
Her co-workers, then her supervisor, were gesturing to her stridently through the glass to come out of the room. The nurse tried to ignore them at first, but the gesturing from the supervisor clearly became a command.…
