Objective
Please post your chosen topic and outline for my approval in the Week 3 Course Project
Dropbox. This will be due along with your Course Project Outline. If you are having difficulty in
selecting a topic, please contact me during Week 2 to discuss possible topics that will be of
interest and relevant to your own career plans.
Some topical areas that previous HSM543 students have used successfully for this Course
Project include the following.<\/p>\n
CHOSEN TOPIC: Managing Hospital Investments
You will be identifying and clearly stating a particular problem or management issue in which an
element of the identified problem or situation is not meeting expectations. A few examples
follow.
Cash flow to the hospital is inadequate. The CFO does not have enough cash on hand to
pay operating bills in a timely manner. How will you improve cash flow?
Hospital investments are currently in CDs, which are earning very low interest rates. A
higher return on investment is needed. What are better options for your specific type of
healthcare facility, and what is the risk associated with each type of investment
recommended?
The clinic cannot recruit and retain enough nurses to keep up with its growing patient
population. How will you find more qualified nurses, and how will you keep them once
you have hired them?
The hospital facility itself needs to be replaced. How will you determine the capital needs
for the project, and how will the funds be raised to accomplish this?
Remember that what appears to be the problem may actually be just a symptom of a bigger
problem, so dig deep to be sure you\u2019ve identified the real problem. If there appears to be more
than one problem or issue, decide if they are separate or related issues. You will be stating the
problem in the form of a question.<\/p>\n

Topic Selection
Week 3 Course Project Assignment: Topic Selection and Outline
Read the possible topic choices. Choose your term paper topic and upload it via the Week 3 Course
Project Dropbox. This will be due along with your Course Project Outline (both items in the same
document). Your topic choice will be reviewed, and you will receive feedback and\/or approval of your topic
choice. You do not have to select one of the listed topics. If there is a labor relations topic that you would
like to write about that is not listed, let the instructor know. The appropriateness of the topic will be
evaluated against which TCO your paper is intended to address.<\/p>\n
