Fundamentals of Human Resources in Healthcare, Second Edition

Fundamentals of Human Resources in Healthcare, Second Edition (Gateway to Healthcare Management)

Instructor Resources: Test Bank, Instructorâ€™s Manual

Human resources are the bedrock of healthcare organizations. Yet healthcare faces severe staffing shortages, both as a result of the aging population and workforce and because of wide disparities in the geographic distribution of workers. To attract and retain this increasingly scarce resourceâ€”and to inspire the best from their employeesâ€”healthcare managers must know how to develop, nurture, and coach their staff for success.

Fundamentals of Human Resources in Healthcare takes a back-to-basics approach to workforce management. It sets forth fundamental concepts that will help healthcare managers succeed at the most important and challenging part of their job: managing people. Unlike books that peddle the latest oversimplified solution or quick-fix cure-all for workforce challenges, this book presents proven best practices and evidence-based strategies for successfully working with employees.

This new edition puts human resources in the context of todayâ€™s healthcare environment, with all of its rapid, ongoing, and unprecedented changes. Thoroughly revised and updated, it includes:

â€¢ A new chapter on enhancing diversity and inclusion in healthcare organizations
â€¢ Expanded material on physician compensation, including changes in incentives; compensation practices in patient-centered medical homes and accountable care organizations; and challenges in measuring physician productivity
â€¢ Revised and updated content on the legal and regulatory environment of human resources management, including sexual harassment, electronic monitoring and workplace searches, and termination
â€¢ A new chapter on human resources management practices that support quality improvement and patient safety initiatives
â€¢ Current developments in union organizing and union membership in healthcare organizations

Written for current and aspiring managers throughout a healthcare organizationâ€”not just those employed in the human resources departmentâ€”this book establishes a vision in which everyone is a human resources manager.
