Option #2: Providing Health Services in a Rural Community: A Report on Project Feasibility (Final Project 550 points)
Providing healthcare services to residents in rural areas has presented increased challenges that include access and cost. For your Capstone Project, you will create a proposal that focuses on Okeene Municipal Hospital, located in Blaine County, Oklahoma. OKeene Municipal Hospital (OMH) would like to offer a comprehensive satellite health clinic or mobile health unit within Blaine County. You have been contracted to prepare a report for the OMH Board of Directors to guide them in determining the feasibility of opening a satellite clinic or a mobile health unit as part of a strategic initiative for their annual strategic management planning process. Read the full Case Study found in the Module 8 folder.
Your report should be organized according to the following structure and contain the elements described:
- Introduction: This is where you introduce your audience to what this report will cover:
- Description of OMH and potential project
- Discussion of whether the organization’s mission, vision, and goals support the project.
- Assessment: This is your evaluation of various factors that affect the feasibility and development of the project:
- Internal and external stakeholders involved and their buy-in for this project
- Internal and external environmental challenges (e.g., access for consumers, medical equipment, technology, community involvement required)
- A market analysis
- A SWOT, PEST, or SOAR analysis
- Attracting quality healthcare personnel
- Recommendations and Implementation: This is where you detail your recommendations and strategies for implementation. Your recommendations should be based directly on what you outlined in your assessment:
- Feasibility for development of a satellite clinic or new service line
- Value-adding support and resources (e.g., equipment, technology)
- Discuss strategic initiatives
- Short- and long-terms plans for implementation of strategic initiatives
- Brief discussion of how you will evaluate and benchmark this project.
- Conclusion: This brief summary should pull together your assessment and recommendations and leave the audience with a clear sense of what can be done.
Your well-written report should meet the following requirements:
- Be 13-15 pages in length, not including the cover or reference pages or appendices.
- Include the strategic thinking maps and content you created for the earlier module assignments. They may be added to the Appendix section.
- Be formatted according to the CSU Global Writing Center (Links to an external site.).
- Provide support for your statements with full APA in-text citations from a minimum of ten (10) scholarly references—five of these references must be from outside sources and five may be from course readings, lectures, and textbooks. The CSU Global Library (Links to an external site.) is a good place to find these references.
Include the market analysis diagram and SWOT, PEST, or SOAR analysis diagram in the Appendix, but present your narrative discussion of these in the Assessment section of your report.
**Below I attached the strategic Thinking map Market Analysis, you will use this as a source to complete this assignment, I also attached the SWOT Analysis of OKeene Muncipal Hospital which was also completed by me you will use this as a source to complete this assignment, I also attached the Recruitment Strategic Plan or Strategic Initiatives, and the Strategic Thinking Map- Recommendations. You will use all of these as sources to complete the assignment, since this is the final project you need to incorporate more detailed information. You can also use some of the references, all must be scholarly references.**
