ASSIGNMENT EXPECTATIONS

As stated in the course and modular outcomes, you are expected to demonstrate critical thinking and a solid analytical and theoretical knowledge of all previous courses in the program.

Furthermore, emphasis should be inputted on applying what you already know to the task of developing an individual project that reflects synthesis, integration, and real-life application (action plans).

As the environment is of a real-life project team, you will be assessed as to how well you present your work to your company and peers (writing and presentations).

Feedback and comments from your instructor and peers should be implemented and early recommendations adjusted accordingly.

General Background

The Mission Viejo Medical Center (in the city of Mission Viejo, California) comprises two geographically adjacent institutions:

Mission Hospital Regional Medical Center: , and

Children’s Hospital at Mission (CHM): Children’s Hospital at Mission (CHM)

The two hospitals serve — within less than a 10-mile radius — the populations of the following nine municipalities: Aliso Viejo, Ladera Ranch, Laguna Hills, Laguna Niguel, Laguna Woods, Lake Forest, Mission Viejo, Rancho Santa Margarita, and San Juan Capistrano.

Retirement Communities:

The city of Laguna Woods (), is home to “Leisure World” (), a retirement community of over 23,000 senior (55 years and above) residents.

The city of Mission Viejo is home to “Casta Del Sol,” a retirement community of more than 3,000 senior (55 years and above) residents.

Following the example and success of integrating a special CHOC – children’s hospital within the Mission Viejo Hospital, it is suggested for the purpose of MHA599 only, that an additional new hospital wing be built, catering to the special needs of the senior population, to be named: “Golden Age Hospital (GAH)”.

The “MHA599 Consulting Team (MHA599CT)” has been tasked to research and develop a project feasibility plan for the future GAH. Mission statement for the GAH and Community Clinic

The Project

Note: You do not need to be a physician or health care provider to complete this assignment. Address it through management lenses.

As independent members of MHA599CT, you will each undertake this task and prepare said plan, following the modular guidelines and assignments.

Each module will focus on different topics, building on your previous studies and based on the background materials of the courses taken in both the MBA and MSHA disciplines.

The assignments for each module will be prepared and presented to the MHA599CT management (your course instructor) as follows:

Case – developing and writing a segment of the plan.

SLP – preparing a boardroom PowerPoint Presentation (PPT) based on the case paper.

Discussion – preparing an executive summary based on the case paper, to be posted on the TD platform. Members of the Team (all students) will comment on their peers’ postings and be able to share information and data for their own plan (see guidelines in the TD platform).

The Case Assignments are the crux of the coursework, whereas the SLP and TD are its derivatives. Case papers should be at least 4-5 content pages long.

You will prepare and submit the sectional/modular case papers for each module, addingthe preceding ones as you go (like chapters in a book); that is, in Module 2 you will combine and submit Case 1 and Case 2, and so on.

You will make amends to each case paper per the feedback you will get from your instructor.

Finally, at the end of the course, you will need to aggregate all chapters into one comprehensive paper, as follows:

Title page – to be submitted in Module 1.

Background – to be submitted in Module 1.

Market Research and Segmentation – to be submitted in Module 1.

Organizational Structures and Functions – to be submitted in Module 2.

Finance and Budgeting – to be submitted in Module 3.
