Hello. My name is Tracy Nunes, and my organizational ethics
00:05 - 00:06
presentation is on inefficiency.
00:07 - 00:08
So what is inefficiency?
00:09 - 00:12
Inefficiency is the lack of the inability to do something
00:13 - 00:16
or produce something without wasting materials, time and energy.
00:17 - 00:21
Some examples of inefficiency, our inability to achieve maximum productivity,
00:22 - 00:27
core management issues, poor communication quality that often leads to
00:28 - 00:30
retention problems in the long term.
00:30 - 00:35
Unrealistic and conflicting goals and misaligned work priorities.
00:38 - 00:42
And while efficient efficiency uses the resource is and cost
00:42 - 00:46
control and is related to hospital managers, it is the
00:47 - 00:49
duty of nurses to carry out patient care and provide
00:50 - 00:50
high quality service.
00:51 - 00:54
Is nursing efficiency includes more than Onley?
00:55 - 00:59
Effective use of resource is it is competent standards of
00:59 - 01:02
care while keeping up with the code of ethics and
01:02 - 01:07
nursing in the nursing profession, the effective interpersonal relationship and
01:07 - 01:12
communication, the appropriate use of technology and inadequate nurse to
01:12 - 01:13
patient ratio.
01:14 - 01:17
Next, I will be discussing ethical situations related to inefficiency,
01:19 - 01:22
so majority of staff nurses state that they Onley have
01:23 - 01:24
few help under them.
01:25 - 01:28
So because of this, we can expect increased workloads, staff
01:29 - 01:32
nurses air unable to appropriately interact with patients and cannot
01:32 - 01:37
apply accurate and timely patient care, which often leads to
01:37 - 01:40
an increase in medical errors, along with an increase in
01:40 - 01:41
hospital stay for patients.
01:42 - 01:46
The result is an increased cost of hospitalization and treatment
01:47 - 01:52
for both the patients and the hospital altogether, lowering efficiency
01:52 - 01:53
and patient care.
01:54 - 01:56
So how does it affect nursing?
01:58 - 02:01
Many studies have shown that nursing that nurses work in
02:01 - 02:07
inefficient conditions such as or manifested by high workloads, which
02:07 - 02:13
often lead to job dissatisfaction, low morale, absenteeism, high turnover,
02:14 - 02:18
poor job performance that can potentially threatened the patient care
02:18 - 02:20
and effectiveness in the organization.
02:22 - 02:24
Code of ethics related to nursing.
02:25 - 02:29
I'm sorry Related to inefficiency The Code of Ethics for
02:29 - 02:31
Nurses serves as the following purposes.
02:32 - 02:36
The Code of ethics for Nurses establishes the ethical standards
02:36 - 02:40
for the profession and provides AH, guide for nurses to
02:41 - 02:45
use an ethical analysts IHS analysis and decision making.
02:46 - 02:50
It is the foundation of the nursing theory practice and
02:50 - 02:53
is an expression of the values, virtues and obligations that
02:53 - 02:58
shape guide and inform Nurses are informed nursing as a
02:58 - 03:05
profession. It is a statement of ethical values, obligations and
03:05 - 03:12
duties that we must provide to patients provisioned for the
03:12 - 03:17
nurse has authority, accountability and a responsibility to the nursing
03:17 - 03:23
practice, makes decisions and takes actions consistently with the obligation
03:24 - 03:29
to provide optimal patient care provisioned.
03:29 - 03:34
Five. The nurse owes the same duties to self as
03:35 - 03:39
to others, including the responsibility to promote health, safety and
03:39 - 03:44
integrity. Nurses must maintain competent and continue personal and professional
03:45 - 03:47
growth provisioned.
03:48 - 03:54
Nine. The profession of nurses, collectively through its professional organization,
03:54 - 03:58
must articulate nursing values, maintain the integrity of the profession
03:59 - 04:05
and integrate principles of social justice into nursing and the
04:05 - 04:06
health policy.
04:08 - 04:10
Ethical principles related to inefficiency.
04:12 - 04:15
Nurses are patient advocates and they must find a balance
04:15 - 04:16
while delivering patient care.
04:17 - 04:20
There are four main principles that nurses must adhere to.
04:21 - 04:25
Autonomy, beneficence and Molefe Essence.
04:25 - 04:32
Justice Justice is the principle of I'm sorry.
04:32 - 04:35
The principle of justice states that there should be an
04:35 - 04:37
element of fairness in all medical decisions.
04:38 - 04:43
Taken fairness in any decisions that either burden or benefit
04:43 - 04:48
any patient, as well as equal distribution of scarce resource
04:49 - 04:51
is, and or of new treatments that become available.
04:53 - 04:58
Nurses should always uphold applicable laws and legislations when making
04:58 - 04:59
patient choices.
05:02 - 05:08
Non maleficent ce the principle of maleficent non mall magnificence
05:09 - 05:11
states that nurses that as nurses.
05:11 - 05:14
We have a duty the duty to do not harm
05:14 - 05:17
or allow any harm to be caused to patients through
05:18 - 05:23
neglect. Now how can we lessen inefficiency?
05:25 - 05:29
There is no universal style to managing time, but there
05:30 - 05:32
are some strategies that can lessen the impact of inefficiency
05:33 - 05:36
and nursing and help make their time more effective.
05:37 - 05:41
Some strategies are awareness arrived to work early.
05:42 - 05:45
Give yourself some time to settle in, plan out your
05:45 - 05:48
day, prioritized by making a list.
05:49 - 05:54
Communicate effectively, whether it be with management, colleagues, patients and
05:55 - 05:55
or patient families.
05:57 - 05:58
It's okay to delegate work.
06:00 - 06:01
Teamwork and nursing is very essential.
06:02 - 06:05
You do not have to do all the work, but
06:05 - 06:07
you must also not leave all the work for the
06:08 - 06:11
next shift, As I can be part of the problem
06:15 - 06:20
technology. Take advantage of current technology and electron ical medical
06:20 - 06:25
records. Multitasking know when it's appropriate to multitask, and when
06:26 - 06:31
it is not anticipate, anticipate any needs and plan ahead.
06:32 - 06:33
Wasting time.
06:34 - 06:35
Minimize wasting time.
06:35 - 06:37
Avoid getting sidetracked and procrastinating.
06:39 - 06:44
Educate. Remember, as nurses were forever students and keep learning.
06:45 - 06:49
Take breaks to clear your mind, take care of yourself
06:50 - 06:53
and find ways to relieve your stressors, see the good,
06:54 - 06:57
always remain, focus and remain positive.
06:59 - 07:03
In conclusion, inefficiency impacts nurses as well as patient care,
07:04 - 07:07
and it is associated with a lack of maximum productivity.
07:08 - 07:12
Leads to bad communication, leads to medical errors, increased hospital
07:13 - 07:16
stays and is very costly and can more than often
07:17 - 07:19
lead to mistrust and lack of quality of care.
07:20 - 07:21
Ways to improve.
07:22 - 07:26
Follow the code of ethics for nurses, adhere to evidence
07:26 - 07:33
based practices collaboration, ensure effective communication and always advocate for
07:33 - 07:33
your patients.
07:35 - 07:39
