Course description

The current environment of health care reform and cost cutting require hospital therapists take significant steps to manage their culture and actual practice patterns. The physical therapy profession consistently promotes advancement, but are hospital therapy programs consistently following through with true best practice top to bottom? Are hospital therapists aware of health care system politics? Do hospital therapists have strategies to successfully navigate politics and influence change? How is a therapy department viewed by executive leadership in a hospital? How can hospital therapy programs ensure they are seen in a positive light? This course will discuss the urgent need to manage culture to help lead health care reform change in today’s hospitals to avoid becoming irrelevant.

Strategy vs Culture

“Culture eats strategy for lunch” ~Peter

Drucker

Page 60: ACUTE CARE THERAPISTS CAN SURVIVE AND THRIVE IN UNCERTAIN TIMES Combined Sections Meeting 2015 February 6 th, 2015 Indianapolis, IN.

“Culture Eats Strategy for Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner

and a Midnight Snack” ~Sharon Cheng

Page 61: ACUTE CARE THERAPISTS CAN SURVIVE AND THRIVE IN UNCERTAIN TIMES Combined Sections Meeting 2015 February 6 th, 2015 Indianapolis, IN.

“In reality, culture does not trump strategy, rather they work together to enhance the success of one another.”

~Mike Myatt

Page 62: ACUTE CARE THERAPISTS CAN SURVIVE AND THRIVE IN UNCERTAIN TIMES Combined Sections Meeting 2015 February 6 th, 2015 Indianapolis, IN.

Definition of Culture

“Culture is the deeper level of basic assumptions and beliefs that are shared by members of an organization, that operate unconsciously and define in a basic ‘taken for granted’ fashion an organization's view of its self and its environment.”

~Edgar Schein

Best Practice Guidelines

Why were we more successful than literature suggests?

Page 66: ACUTE CARE THERAPISTS CAN SURVIVE AND THRIVE IN UNCERTAIN TIMES Combined Sections Meeting 2015 February 6 th, 2015 Indianapolis, IN.

• Group leaders didn’t understand the goal• Team members new to reading research• Team members were assigned 40-50

articles to read per week

Roadblocks

Page 67: ACUTE CARE THERAPISTS CAN SURVIVE AND THRIVE IN UNCERTAIN TIMES Combined Sections Meeting 2015 February 6 th, 2015 Indianapolis, IN.

• Staff didn’t use existing clinical practice guidelines and systematic reviews

• Staff didn’t implement guidelines because too busy and didn’t see the need for them

Roadblocks

Page 68: ACUTE CARE THERAPISTS CAN SURVIVE AND THRIVE IN UNCERTAIN TIMES Combined Sections Meeting 2015 February 6 th, 2015 Indianapolis, IN.

Shifting Culture

• Partner therapists strategically• Select your groups purposefully • Keep groups small, 6 to 8 people

Page 69: ACUTE CARE THERAPISTS CAN SURVIVE AND THRIVE IN UNCERTAIN TIMES Combined Sections Meeting 2015 February 6 th, 2015 Indianapolis, IN.

Shifting Culture

• Members should be skilled in critical thinking and group dynamics• The leader should be skilled in keeping the

group on task

Page 70: ACUTE CARE THERAPISTS CAN SURVIVE AND THRIVE IN UNCERTAIN TIMES Combined Sections Meeting 2015 February 6 th, 2015 Indianapolis, IN.

Delancey Street Foundation

• Started in 1971• No government funding• Average resident: – convicted felon– high school dropout– substance abuser– illiterate

Page 71: ACUTE CARE THERAPISTS CAN SURVIVE AND THRIVE IN UNCERTAIN TIMES Combined Sections Meeting 2015 February 6 th, 2015 Indianapolis, IN.

Delancey Street Foundation Results

• Over 10,000 people have received high school equivalency degrees• Over 1000 graduates from their state

accredited vocational three-year program

Page 72: ACUTE CARE THERAPISTS CAN SURVIVE AND THRIVE IN UNCERTAIN TIMES Combined Sections Meeting 2015 February 6 th, 2015 Indianapolis, IN.

How Was It Done?

• Teach people to find and develop their strengths

• The best way to learn is to teach

• Function as an extended family, a community in which every member helps the others

Page 73: ACUTE CARE THERAPISTS CAN SURVIVE AND THRIVE IN UNCERTAIN TIMES Combined Sections Meeting 2015 February 6 th, 2015 Indianapolis, IN.

Teach people to find and develop their strengths

• Who is good at reading research?• Who is clinically experienced?• Who can help these two groups communicate

with each other?

Page 74: ACUTE CARE THERAPISTS CAN SURVIVE AND THRIVE IN UNCERTAIN TIMES Combined Sections Meeting 2015 February 6 th, 2015 Indianapolis, IN.

The best way to learn is to teach

• Let your staff do the teaching • You may need to train your staff to teach

Page 75: ACUTE CARE THERAPISTS CAN SURVIVE AND THRIVE IN UNCERTAIN TIMES Combined Sections Meeting 2015 February 6 th, 2015 Indianapolis, IN.

Function as an extended family, a community in which every member

helps the others

• The each-one-teach-one process• Use a diverse group of trainers by discipline

and generation

The Blame Game

Page 77: ACUTE CARE THERAPISTS CAN SURVIVE AND THRIVE IN UNCERTAIN TIMES Combined Sections Meeting 2015 February 6 th, 2015 Indianapolis, IN.

It’s All Healthcare Reform’s Fault

Page 78: ACUTE CARE THERAPISTS CAN SURVIVE AND THRIVE IN UNCERTAIN TIMES Combined Sections Meeting 2015 February 6 th, 2015 Indianapolis, IN.

• US healthcare is not the best• We cannot sustain the current percentage of

GNP for substandard results

It’s management’s job to tell us what we need to do

Page 80: ACUTE CARE THERAPISTS CAN SURVIVE AND THRIVE IN UNCERTAIN TIMES Combined Sections Meeting 2015 February 6 th, 2015 Indianapolis, IN.

Therapists have the most knowledge about how to best prioritize patient care

Reality Check

I can’t do any more than

what I’m doing now

Page 82: ACUTE CARE THERAPISTS CAN SURVIVE AND THRIVE IN UNCERTAIN TIMES Combined Sections Meeting 2015 February 6 th, 2015 Indianapolis, IN.

• You probably can’t do more if you continue to do things the way you have always done them

• Are you still focusing on units/visits?• Are you consistently using evidence-based

practice?
