Respond to the following:

Dr. Debbie Laughon

Budgets can be challenging and there are many options to consider. Unfortunately, nursing / labor are the major cost for organizations. I find that the impact of technology is a significant factor. The industry reports that the various types of technology should have made the nurse more efficient. In my experience, the number of “clicks” to document and the number of times that the wi-fi disconnects are overlooked. It is also hard to capture the acuity of the patients and just what work requires a nurse. Most labor is built around a workload standard, which is a formula of how many hours of care, or surgical minutes, or number of cases managed/ per hour of nursing care. There are new systems that calculate the workload by DRG and extracting information from the EHR and can calculate how many hours of care are required. Apparently, another gap is that lack of complete documentation. Remember if it isn’t documented it doesn’t count. We will soon be using a system like this to drive staffing. We have some concerns, so time will tell. Your point about retention is also important. The evidence does support that it can be effective, but it can’t keep up with the number needed (demand). Variables such as aging of our workforce, and career changes overcome what can be saved. As you think about your project; if you focus on labor, be careful. It is easy to think more people is the answer. It is hard to find data to support the numbers of staff. What types of labor concerns do you hear in your organization? Do you think folks are working too hard? How does technology impact the work?

What implicit norm(s) did you violate?

Assignment #2 – Break-a-Social-Norm

For this assignment, I want everyone to break a social norm. Then you will discuss how breaking the norm made you feel, and how it might have made other people feel.

Step 1:

First you need to identify a social norm. Some examples are:

• Appearance (you can wear pink slippers to school or around town instead of shoes; put a blue dot on the tip of your nose; wear your shirt backward / inside-out; overdo your makeup)

• Interpersonal Behavior (stand too close or too far away from someone you are talking too; avoid eye contact; scoff at a person’s every comment)

• Social Etiquette (violate elevator norms – that is, instead of turning around to face the elevator doors when they close, face the other people in the elevator and stare them in the eye!; eat with your mouth open; talk loudly in a library; fly a kite inside the mall, something one of my former students actually did!)

• THESE ARE ONLY EXAMPLES. PLEASE TRY TO BE CREATIVE & COME UP WITH SOME ORIGINAL IDEAS ON YOUR OWN. Another one of my former students stood behind people at water fountains chanting “Chug! Chug! Chug!” loudly.

Note: You may want to do the behavior several times in different places to note any interesting patterns. Do people’s reactions may differ as a function of sex, age, location?

Step 2:

Incorporate the following points in a short paper (400 words minimum, 700 words maximum):

1). What implicit norm(s) did you violate? (5 points)

2). Describe how you violated it (them). (9 points)

3). Analyze your thoughts and feelings while you violated the norm(s). (9 points)

4). Analyze what other people were probably thinking about your violation (9 points)

5). Did you gain any insight into your own or others’ behavior? What about the power of the situation? (9 points)

6). Include AT LEAST ONE key social psychological principle in your paper. You may want to include something about role-playing, conformity / nonconformity, normative social influence, cognitive dissonance, self-monitoring, etc. Your choice, but have AT LEAST ONE! (9 points)
