Instructions:
This week, you learned about the ethical issues in health care, and how it relates to Risk Management programs. This topic could be an entire course by itself, but we kept it more of an introduction. For this assignment, we are going to dive a little deeper into a current topic of gender identity, and the impact that it has on health care delivery.You are the risk manager of a local hospital looking at how to deliver health care services in a way that respects the patient, and their right to choose their gender identity. How will you structure a team, what stakeholders need to be involved and why? (think about the potential impact from the time that the patient registers in the system to the time that services are rendered and they are discharged). Once you discuss the structure of the team, identify some of the issues that need to be considered. Finally, make sure to describe your role as the risk manager in the ongoing management of the resolutions that your team has created.
