PROPOSAL3
Case Background
This is a proposal report to be presented to the Board of Directors of HealthReach
regarding what can be done to overcome the issues faced by the Company. As reported by Dr.
Livingstone, HealthReach faces issues such as increased absenteeism and increasing turnover
rate among nursing staffs. This has affected the quality of patient care at this private healthcare
center. What is more worrying is s fact that the morale of the staffs is also being affected. These
are some serious issues. The falling quality of the treatment is questioning the level of safety that
HealthReach offers to its patients. Bad reviews will float from one patient to another leading to
bad publicity of the quality of treatment they offer (Buchanan & McCalman, 2018). Hence, the
management needs to look into this matter and do the needful to control the issues such as those
being highlighted by Dr. Livingstone. The quality of patient care will fall further if these issues
are not addressed on an urgent basis. Indeed, a High-Performance Work System (HPWS) should
be the appropriate answer to these issues. However, the implementation phase will require
strategic collaboration between the company’s leaders and the human resource managers.
Indeed, the role of human resource managers in implementing the system is highly needed
(Boxall & Winterton, 2018).
