Introduction
Good health and social care facilities are the need of the hour. Every country needs to
develop advance health and social care system. To make an better health and social care system
the first thing which is required is efficient human resource (Abdelhak, Grostick and Hanken,
2014). It should be the priority of the organisation to choose individuals who excel in the field of
healthcare. Employment of individuals in health and social care is a very challenging task. As the
nature of goals is very complex and it requires efficient individuals who can manage variety of
people at the same time.
Proper human resource strategies, leadership and management style can help the hospitals and
nursing organisations in addressing these issues. This report is about the management of human
resource at St Margaret's Nursing home which is located near London. This report is focused on
recruitment and selection, its planning, legislative policy, its application on the recruitment and
selection process and various theories of training and leadership required in the health and social
care.
TASK 1
1.1 Various factors to be considered while planning and recruitment of individuals in health and
social care:
There are many factors which are needed to be considered by the human resource
department. These factors have major impact on the organisation capabilities. The main factor
which have the biggest impact on the organisation capabilities is the human resource (Almalki,
FitzGerald and Clark, 2011). A proper path needs to be followed while recruitment and selection
of employees. The factors which are considered while planning for recruitment and selection are:
 Structured recruitment policy: St Margaret nursing home needs to develop a stable
recruitment policy. This will help it in setting various standards for applying for a
specific job.
 Overall recruitment aim: It needs to define the reason behind the recruitment. There are
two reason usually. First is nursing home is replacing a retiring employee. Second reason
is that, nursing home is in the process of expansion and hence have vacant post for which
it needs to recruit.
