Physician Issues
 
You are the CEO of Acme Hospital, a small rural facility. On your staff, there is a physician (OB-GYN), Dr. Thomas Cole, with whom you have been having some problems. Dr. Cole:

  • does not finish his morning rounds on a regular basis
  • does not attend medical staff meetings
  • often very late in arriving to deliver babies
  • most of the time, the nurses on duty in the delivery room deliver the majority of Dr. Cole’s babies

You know that these issues must be addressed but there are other connecting problems.

  • First, Dr. Cole is the son of Dr. Frederick Cole who just retired after 55 years of service with Acme Hospital.
  • “Dr. Fred” was much beloved among hospital staff and before he left, he used his charm and status to make certain staff members (you were not one) promise to help and to protect his son, the younger Cole.

You know that when you begin raising these issues there will likely be resistance to take any action.
Please discuss the following:

  1. What are the possible liability issues that the younger Dr. Cole is exposing the facility to?
  2. How would you manage the staff that promised to help the younger Dr. Cole?
  3. Would you approach the elder Dr. Cole? Why or why not?
  4. Is this a problem that can be “fixed”? If so, how can it be fixed? Are you willing to give the younger Dr. Cole the time to “fix” the issues as the CEO?

Post should be 200-250 words

write response about it (150words)

Using Mills’ definition, I would say that sociological imagination applies to my life in various ways. For example, I use to live in Bakersfield, California where it was very rare to see people doing outdoor activities like walking, biking and running. As I moved to Santa Monica, I was more exposed to seeing people running and doing activities at the beach. I am now starting to participate in more outdoor activities such as acroyoga and walking around my community for fun, but I haven’t stopped there. With my current habit of taking the bus to school or driving, I have changed my habits to either walking or biking to school. I am hoping that my simple acts of exercise will influence others to do the same and even add daily activities to their lifestyle like going for a ten minute walk.
One point of intersection between my personal biography and a social/historical event was when I had visited the Philippines for the first time. Over the summer, I had visited a place called Bohol, Philippines and I was puzzled as to why there was a lack of hot water and electricity at my hotel. Finally, I had remembered that there was a 7.2 earthquake in Bohol in 2013 which compromised most of their necessities. Remembering that historical event allowed me to become more understanding and considerate for the people of Bohol.

Major League Baseball players' association

 Case Study Several years ago, the Major League Baseball players’ association went on strike in September, just before the World Series started. The players’ contracts expired at the beginning of the season (May), but they held off the strike until September when they would lose only one-sixth of their salaries. In contrast, a September strike would hurt the owners financially because they earn a larger portion of their revenue during the playoffs. As one player explained: “If we strike next spring, there’s nothing stopping [the club owners] from letting us go until next June or July because they don’t have that much at stake.” Use your knowledge of the sources and contingencies of power to explain why the MLB baseball players’ association had more power in negotiations by walking out in September rather than March.
