Budget Negotiations and Communication Overview In the growing effort to provide quality care at a heightened safety level at which care is given, measures must be taken to secure this goal. The staffing issue that is being faced in this healthcare facility is an issue that has been plaguing institutions globally. The lack of adequately trained healthcare workers, especially within the nursing field, has been a matter of contention and was a foreseen issue that was not adequately addressed when the healthcare sector was made aware of its inevitability years before it came to fruition. One of the routes chosen to get ahead of the upcoming issue, with a ten-year head start, was the Health People 2020 initiative. Healthy People 2020 goals, as described by (Ochiai et al., 2021), as one of the longest spanning disease prevention and health promotion initiatives in the United States. It provides a strategic framework for promoting, strengthening, and evaluating the nation's efforts to improve the health and well-being of all people. It utilizes specific, measurable objectives to serve as a national agenda for eliminating disparities and advancing health equity. This is a global effort initiative that has been expanded to 2030. The initiative is a great plan to get people to be more proactive in their care and to be an advocate for themselves. However, the stakeholders did not consider the data gatherers, the healthcare professionals themselves. Nor could anyone remotely fathom that a global pandemic would heavily impact us. The pandemic could be likened to the opening of Pandoras’ Box, highlighting the many things being done wrong or needlessly lacking. It gave an eagle-eyed view of how dire the nursing shortage was, is, and will be. Nurses experienced a grueling situation, during which a significant amount of psychological and physical distress was inflicted on them, being physically and mentally drained in the face of fear and uncertainty (Danesh et al., 2021).

knowledge and experience could be passed on to new hires as well, reducing the wastefulness of essential supplies and materials as well as easing some of the pressure from the supply chain issue. Organizational Alignment The mission statement for our organization institution states that our main focus is providing quality care to the community. The policies and procedures are upheld daily by company personnel on a daily basis. The promise of caring for the community in the mission statement should also be extended to the face of this organization, the ones who ensure that this promise is carried out. The importance of the mission statement to employees is inevitable for the organizational goal. When your employees do not know about your mission statement and when

they don’t own it, growth will not be sustainable (Ansary, 2021).

The organization's main objective is to make the communities it serves healthier. The dedication to delivering the highest standard of clinical care starts with qualified healthcare professionals that will also teach future professionals. This strategic move of the organization will add the immeasurable value of safety and security. Moreover, this change will increase interprofessional collaboration, which will result in a more productive and efficient workflow. The added safeguard of a check and balance mechanism will raise the trust level of individuals giving the care, which will result in a significant rise in the bandwidth under which they are currently operating.
