Locate an example of a policy or guideline from an external source to a
healthcare organization. Explain how this policy or guideline may be a
constraint to a healthcare organization’s planning, or how it may shape
the healthcare organization’s philosophy. For example, given that the
American Academy of Pediatrics offers guidelines on child vaccinations,
these guidelines might impact the ability of the healthcare organization
to deliver services to newborns and infants. Using a similar example,
as well as the characteristics of effective plans as your framework,
discuss how proper planning can help organizations in their future
decision making.
