In the United States, three distinct economic classes influence the mode of healthcare provision. The three main categories are the upper income, middle income, and lower-income class (Barreto, 2017). These three classes have varying access to quality healthcare and health insurance coverage due to their differing financial capabilities. The upper class has the privilege of economic might (Barreto, 2017). Healthcare is not a challenge to this class as they can afford high-quality healthcare from both public and private facilities and subscribe to expensive and comprehensive health insurance covers. The middle class has moderate financial stamina (Barreto, 2017). They can afford essential medical covers and average healthcare quality. The last classification of people according to their financial stamina contains the financially underprivileged in the society (Barreto, 2017). People in this class have scarce resources that they struggle to balance between spending on food or shelter.

    One of the metrics being used is the Consumer Assessment of Healthcare Processes and Services (CAHPS) surveys (Graffigna et al., 2016). Health care providers are using this metric to establish patient satisfaction levels with regard to the services they receive at their facilities. Some are even incorporating social media as a tool to obtain patient feedback concerning their experiences in hospitals (Graffigna et al., 2016). In order to ensure patients are more involved in the care they receive, many health care organizations are providing them with access to numerous medical resources and sources of health information. Considering their lack of medical backgrounds, most patients will barely know anything about the ailment plaguing them and how to manage or treat it. To take part in formulating their treatment plans, patients need to know about such things.

Thirdly, the organization should introduce informational forums and programs which encourage the nurses to share their inputs about their daily duties, scheduling, and hospital policies. Such forums encourage open communication, where the employees share their views on areas the leaders should improve to achieve positive outcomes. This is an effective strategy that keeps the administrators and nurse managers aware of issues affecting the nurses’ performance and design solutions collaboratively. For instance, nurses emphasize talking about burnout due to the exhausting working hours, which encourages the leadership to take action (Laschinger et al., 2009). However, if an organization lacks such forums for open conversations, the nurses feel less valued since their inputs are not considered.

which contribute to better healthcare outcomes. Situational leadership promotes the team members’ strengths and helps build their confidence (Johnson & Rossow, 2019). For instance, instead of delegating a task, a leader can show them how to perform it and supervise them to ensure they are on the right path. In addition, situational leadership inspires, motivates the team to be innovative and adapt to changes, and provides new and improved working methods that ensure the overall growth of the team and the organization and meet the organizational goals.
