Module 4 - SLP
THE FUTURE OF HEALTH CARE DELIVERY
Another challenge affecting health care delivery is the growing shortage of health care personnel. Quality, a major concern of health care, is directly impacted by understaffing. For your Module 4 SLP, conduct research on the need for health care personnel in your state, city/town, or a location that you are familiar with. Based on your research, compose a 2-page memorandum to your local/state representative identifying your findings. In your memorandum, include the following:
· Detailed statistics on the shortage of health care personnel in your selected geographical area.
· Comparative statistics to the national shortage of health care personnel.
· Explain how health care personnel shortage is affecting health care delivery currently and within the next 10 years.
