Organizational and Leader Analysis
Organization Description
A1. Describe the organization and its objective(s)
Acme Healthcare System (AHS) is a not-for-profit health care organization based in
Anytown Virginia. Boasting a staff of over 12,000 employees, a large network of hospitals,
primary and specialty physician practices and other complementary services, AHS provides
healthcare services to approximately 1 million residents in its region, regardless of their ability to
pay. AHS also provides medical education and research opportunities through a medical school
formed in partnership with a large, nationally known university.
• Vision statement: “We are committed to a common purpose of better patient care,
better community health and lower cost.”
• Mission statement: “Improving the health of the communities we serve.”
ACH has grown significantly from its humble beginnings as a local, single hospital
formed over 100 years ago by leaders in the community. As one would expect, a healthcare
organization of its current magnitude would require a robust risk management initiative. This
document will deal specifically with this department and its leadership.
The ACH Clinical Advancement and Patient Safety Department (CAPS) is responsible
for addressing all issues of clinical risk management as well as quality and patient safety
improvement initiatives. It consists of the following positions:
• Vice President (VP)
• Senior Director of Clinical Risk Management (SDCRM)
• Clinical Risk Manager (CRM)
• Ambulatory Clinical Risk Manager (ACRM)
