MHA FPX5004 Assessment 4 Self-Assessment of Leadership, Collaboration, and Ethics
To motivate stakeholders and energize the team in the context of “MHA FPX5004 Assessment 4 Self-Assessment of Leadership, Collaboration, and Ethics,” I focused on aligning individual aspirations with the project’s overarching vision. I emphasized the importance of our work in enhancing healthcare services for the local Haitian population, tapping into the intrinsic motivation of participants who were passionate about cultural competence. Recognition of achievements and milestones, coupled with constructive feedback, bolstered morale and enthusiasm (Fulk, 2021). However, I recognize the need for more personalized motivational tactics tailored to diverse stakeholder preferences. In future projects, I intend to incorporate a broader range of motivational strategies to cater to the unique needs of team members, ensuring sustained enthusiasm and commitment.
Ethics Experience
Ethical Dilemma and Analysis
In my role at Lakeland Medical Center, I encountered an ethical dilemma related to patient confidentiality and the duty to report potential harm. During a team meeting, a colleague inadvertently mentioned a patient’s name and condition when discussing a recent case. This breach of patient confidentiality raised concerns about our commitment to upholding the ethical principles outlined in the American Nurses Association (ANA) Code of Ethics (American College of Healthcare Executives, 2022).
Self-Assessment of Leadership, Collaboration, and Ethics
The ANA Code of Ethics for Nurses emphasizes the importance of safeguarding patient confidentiality and privacy. In this situation, I had to balance the duty to respect patient privacy with the responsibility to promote a culture of safety and report potential harm (American College of Healthcare Executives, 2022). I immediately recognized the breach of patient confidentiality and approached my colleague privately to discuss the matter. I reminded them of the importance of patient privacy and our ethical obligations as healthcare professionals. Together, we decided to report the incident to our supervisor, in line with our workplace code of ethics, which prioritizes patient safety and confidentiality.
