and write a 3–5 page analysis of your findings from the interview.
For this assessment, you will speak with a leader of your choice who has experience with creating and managing budgets, learn about that person’s approach to budget management, and consider techniques or strategies you may emulate when you create and manage budgets.
Nurse leaders must be well-versed in the fundamentals of health care economics. A firm understanding of these concepts is essential in order to examine national trends and diverse health care organizations. At the organizational level, health care economics operate in a manner very similar to other competitive industries and businesses.
Within any organization, regardless of size, nurse leaders must understand the purpose and complexity of building a solid budget. Nurse leaders must be able to recognize the organizational or unit goals and then be adept and competent in the planning, designing, and defending a budget to meet those needs.
You are the nurse manager of a new urgent care clinic, and one of your first tasks is to prepare next year’s operating budget. Like many nurses, you have had little or no direct experience with the budgeting process and realize that financial management is not one of your strengths as a leader. Consequently, you have decided that you need to reach out for help from someone in the facility with budgeting experience and financial management expertise who can offer you help and insight.
As you prepare to complete this assessment, you may want to think about other related issues to deepen your understanding or broaden your viewpoint. You are encouraged to consider the questions below and discuss them with a fellow learner, a work associate, an interested friend, or a member of your professional community. Note that these questions are for your own development and exploration and do not need to be completed or submitted as part of your assessment.
Capital and operating budgets each play a major role in the financial expenditures of nursing units.
What is the purpose of each type of budget?
How does managing these two types of budgets differ?
What financial management techniques are common to both types?
Reflect on your experience with either type of budget.
How have one or the other of these two budgets affected the provision of care in your organization or unit?
Conduct an interview with your site supervisor, or other nurse leader whom you consider to be a mentor in the area of health care finance. Discuss their experience with operations and capital budgets in their current or previous role. Explore the following topics in your interview:
Their experience managing an operating budget.
Their approach to managing productivity within the parameters of the budget.
Their approach to oversight of the appropriate use and availability of equipment and supplies.
The experience of managing a capital budget.
How managing a capital budget differs from managing an operating budget.
Their application of finance principles to fulfill the organization’s mission and goals.
Analysis
Note: The requirements outlined below correspond to the grading criteria in the assessment scoring guide. Be sure that your written analysis addresses each point, at a minimum. You may also want to read the Guiding Questions: Mentor Interview [DOCX] Download Guiding Questions: Mentor Interview [DOCX]to better understand how each criterion will be assessed.
Prepare a written analysis of your findings from the interview, supplemented by your own research and evaluation of budget management techniques.
Compare the process of managing an operating budget to that of managing a capital budget.
Describe the process of allocating resources for labor, equipment, and services.
Describe an effective approach that contributes to planning for profitability and fiscal success.

Anxiety and depression association of America is one of the applications I found for support on mental illness. They offer different support groups for several different forms of mental illness as well as for different ages.
Substance abuse and mental health services administration is the second website that I found. They have a phone number listed on the website to call in times of need and different links for support.
Lastly, UCSF Weill Institute for Neurosciences has a website for “useful wellness and mental health apps” that has different options from meditation and relaxation to coping with anxiety and depression.
It is important that when you are finding a support group for mental illness that you find one that fits for you and your needs, whether it be anxiety, depression, bipolar, social anxiety, etc. This is one of the components that I used while researching these applications. Also, each association had a direct contact link for questions. Another component that I used to evaluate the websites was that they had their vision and mission listed on their website and how they are achieving it.
Explain from a nursing perspective the benefits of each site and what improvements are needed.
Mental illness is a very vulnerable thing to speak out about and not everyone is always comfortable reaching out for help. These websites listed above all had one thing in common, no judgement. They are all very direct about what their goal is and how they are there to help you. That mental illness is a very real disease, and it isn’t something to be ashamed or embarrassed about. They all have several different ways to reach out for help, apps, zoom meetings, or a direct help line to speak to someone. They each have health professionals who are willing to give their time and support to help those in need.
How do these sites or applications (one of which is a support group) support diverse and hard-to-reach populations?
SAMHSA’s has a number listed for a helpline and they offer English or Spanish speaking. These are also non-profit sites and are free for those who need to use them so cost is not a concern which allows those who do not have insurance or cannot afford to go to the doctor to get help when needed to have the option to use these sites. “We recognize that when people across identity groups are regarded and engaged as full participants in leadership, decision making and programs, we are able to provide resources and programs that best meet the needs of our members and the public. As such, ADAA leadership embraces diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) as a core value for all members, staff, and volunteers. We are committed to fostering an environment that supports cultural equity and models diversity and inclusion. ADAA is committed to practicing DEI principles to ensure that everyone feels safe, seen, valued, respected, and welcome.” (ADAA, 2024.)

The disease that I chose to find patient education websites and a support group on is Congestive Heart Failure. I found a lot of helpful websites with tons of education. Still, the two best ones were the Heart Failure Society of America website which has patient education modules, and the American Heart Association’s Heart Hub website which includes information on various cardiac diseases including heart failure. The support group I found is through Mended Hearts, this a national support group with regional chapters for both adults and pediatric patients with heart diseases. I chose these websites because they are .org which typically indicates that these are legitimate and often non-profit organizations. These websites cite up-to-date medical information and journals which is another reliable indicator.
Each of these sites has different benefits. The Heart Failure Society of America website could improve on being a bit more user friendly because, for older patients, navigating to the patient education modules may be difficult. The American Heart Associations Heart Hub is a great, user friendly website with distinct link to different resources. Mended Hearts is also user friendly with patient education information and resources on connecting with a local peer support group.
These websites can help hard-to-reach populations because in an area where medical providers and information may not be readily accessible, patients can access these sites and find out how to manage their symptoms and find more information to educate them on their condition in overwhelmed healthcare systems of rural areas. Mended Hearts has regional support groups so patients in rural areas are still able to locate peers and connect with them.

Patients are becoming technologically savvy. The use of the Smartphone has made accessing information as simple as tapping on a downloaded application. For this discussion, please select a disease or condition and research online support groups and websites or applications you would recommend for patient education. Consider the information provided by USA.gov related to evaluating health information on the Internet (https://ods.od.nih.gov/Health_Information/How_To_Evaluate_Health_Information_on_the_Internet_Questions_and_Answers.aspxLinks to an external site.)
Please respond to each of the following prompts:
Choose 3 sites or applications (one must be a support group) and explain what the critical components are that you used to evaluate them.
Explain from a nursing perspective the benefits of each site and also what improvements are needed.
How do these sites or applications (one of which is a support group) support diverse and hard-to-reach populations?
Please be sure to provide appropriate APA-formatted in-text citations and references to support your response.
