Integrative Case: What Went Wrong at University Hospital?

Creating a strong and robust training program for the employees is essential to the success of the company. Training must be available for all employees through various delivery methods in order to meet the different learning styles and employee availability. In-person training will be provided with a certified facilitator along with a human resource representative. Materials will be provided in the form of training booklet available in print and electronic format. On-demand videos will be made available through the company portal. All training materials must be a part of new-employee orientation. Print media and on-demand videos must be maintained and updated in order to provide a refresher course to current employees.

Another secondary issue is the weakened employee expectations and employee performance, which adversely affects good patient care as well.

The time frame gives managers enough time to practice when they have learnt. Those who have not applied what they have learnt are called back and given more training. The information can be collected through surveys, or self-evaluations. It can also be collected from direct observation of the training or of the weeks following the training. Information can also be collected during the training by observation. The trainer or a third party can observe the behavior or attitudes of the managers during the training. Managers can also be given a self-evaluation to conduct at the end of the training to identify which areas they needed improvement and what they have learnt during the training. The evaluation can also ask for situations in which the managers can apply what they have learnt and how they can apply it, such as case study, role-playing.

(2) Did not take employees into consideration: In this case I am aware that the employees are interested in the new technology first, but soon “lose that interest”. It could be caused by the hard operation of the new system, thus the teaching may took a long time. While the old method is much easier and have been used for a long period, to change this habit can be tough.

The evaluation of training consists of a reaction, learning, behavior, and results. Results determine how much the trainee liked the program. Learning outlines what facts and concepts were learned. Behavior determines if the program had an effect on the behavior(s) of the trainees. And results highlight what was accomplished as a result of the program, i.e. reduction of turnover or cost. Evaluating a training program allows for an employer to identify and correct areas in which improvement is needed. In order accomplish company goals employees must be trained effectively. Training cannot be an afterthought; it should be planned and implemented correctly. Career Development Strategies

Consulting with the existing staff will help to create relevant and achievable goals, and will also increase employee commitment towards achieving those goals. An example of a goal for current employees would be; ensuring that all information in each category of the training schedule is covered within the allotted time frame. Considering their involvement, consultation with employees will benefit the controlling function during implementation of the

The plan I would offer for evaluating the training program would be to develop a survey monkey at the completion of each training class to determine the effectiveness of the training and whether or not it was beneficial. I would make this post evaluation survey mandatory and incorporate a certificate of completion so that all participants would participate in the actual compilation of the results. I feel it would be beneficial to offer a pre and post test to evaluate the training program to validate what the employees knew before the training and what they gained or learned from the training following completion. I would utilize getting the reactions of employees to gauge how effective the training was and whether or not any actions need to be taken to make adjustments to the training program.

The health care industry is in constant flux, continually incorporating the most current laws and regulations, up to date technology, and procedures while maintaining patent safety. This research paper will utilize a literary review to analyze the benefits of a continuous training needs analysis (TNA). The research utilized is based in the analysis of a TNA and/or results of health provider training. The research will look at the validity of a ongoing TNA, providing trainers with a guide to the gaps in employee knowledge, skills, and abilities (KSA’s) as new processes demand it. This will be accomplished through understanding what the most current KSA requirements are, then establishing what training will be required next. Presently, it is common within the industry to have a predetermined training agenda, done within a predetermined timeframe, such as annually, and this allows too much opportunity for gap to develop. To conclude, a TNA is valid, needed to separate perceived and actual knowledge, and incorporating a continual data collection program the health care industry can manage the KSA gaps as they develop.

It is important to ensure that the learning goals and the learning methodologies are tailored to suit the needs of the organisation because it is way that the training will be in accordance with the organisation’s policies, goals, capabilities and business plan. The training should be also tailored for the needs of the participants because every person has different personality which means that some appropriate learning style must be used for him or her. It is also necessary to ensure that the necessary resources are provided. If this is not happening, then the training will not be effective, which is a waste of time and money.

Putting together an effective employee training program can be a monumental task if not planned properly. There are four steps, repeating to produce a continuously better program that is best for both employer and employee. The process steps include needs assessment, design, implementation, and evaluation. Once it is evaluated, it should then show some weakness that should begin the cycle again with needs assessment and
