Risk Management Analysis Part 1 – 1000 words ( 4 pages)
The purpose of this assignment is to analyze a health care risk management program.
Conduct research on approaches to risk management processes, policies, and concerns in your current or anticipated professional arena to find an example of a risk management plan. Look for a plan with sufficient content to be able to complete this assignment successfully. In a 1,000‐1,250-word paper, provide an analysis of the risk management plan that includes the following:
- Summary of the type of risk management plan you selected (new employee, specific audience, community‐focused, etc.) and your rationale for selecting that example. Describe the health care organization to which the plan applies and the role risk management plays in that setting.
- Description of the standard administrative steps and processes in a typical health care organization’s risk management program compared to the administrative steps and processes you identify in your selected example plan. (Note: For standard risk management policies and procedures, look up the MIPPA-approved accrediting body that regulates the risk management standards in your chosen health care sector, and consider federal, state, and local statutes as well.)
- Analysis of the key agencies and organizations that regulate the administration of safe health care in your area of concentration and an evaluation of the roles each one plays in the risk management oversight process.
- Evaluation of your selected risk management plan’s compliance with the standards of its corresponding MIPPA-approved accrediting body relevant to privacy, health care worker safety, and patient safety.
- Proposed recommendations or changes you would implement in your risk management program example to enhance, improve, or secure the aforementioned compliance standards.
In addition to your textbook, you are required to support your analysis with a minimum of three peer‐reviewed references.

any healthcare organization is of great significance to ensure there is proper development,
assessment, close monitoring and implementation of the potential risks to totally prevent or
minimize the exposure of risks (Allen‐Duck et al., 2017). In this paper we are going to carry out
an examination of a risk management program with a safe care and patient environment, with the
main focus being on the community. The management program selected is the fall prevention
strategy used in a community setting.
The Risk Management Plan and Rationale
The risk management plan is the reduction and prevention program. This program mainly
targets the geriatric population that is within the community. The main focus of the program is on
ensuring the identification of different people in the community who are at risk of falls and
ensuring that there is proper implementation and provision of the evidence-based interventions. In
addressing the fall reduction, prevention is the main step (Haddad et al., 2019). The rationale for
choosing the fall prevention and the reduction program as the significant type of risk management
plan is due to the fact that falls have a major risk to both the health and independence of the
geriatric population. Note that falls are the leading cause of injuries and death among the geriatric
population. Moreover, they have effects in terms of healthcare costs and health of the individuals.
It is important to come to a realization that falls can be prevented. The program gives a clear picture
of how falls can be prevented in a community setting, and thus geriatric population able to
successfully maintain their health and independence.

The Standard Administrative Processes and Steps
The process of risk management in a healthcare organization involves carefully identifying
the context, the process of risk analysis, risk evaluation, and risk management. Identifying the
context involved include identifying the different areas that are of high priority which need risk
management when it comes to the care that patients receive. Another step that can be of great
significance is identification of risks by making sure that you are aware of different risks that are
within the healthcare services and primary environment (Simsekler et al., 2018). After risk
analysis, there is the comprehension of the already identified risks. This is done through analyzing
the primary causes, the intensity of already identified risks, and the actions of control that are
available against the risks identified. Carrying an evaluation of the already identified risks is of
great significance toward prioritizing based on the how severe the risk. This is done using the risk
analysis score. Risk management is the last step, where different appropriate measures are
successfully implemented for the purpose of preventing and ensuring minimization of risk
occurrence (Moncada & Mire, 2017) .
The healthcare sector has a great impact on individuals, and thus the quality of care is a
significant marker in terms of competition in the health market. There is need to have an integration
of an effective risk management procedure in healthcare organizations. For better outcomes in the
healthcare department, there is need to have the Total Quality Management programs. Through
this program patients experience low payment costs; customer the

(Mahoney et al., 2017). A culture that embraces risk management using the evidence-based
evidence and guidelines helps in successfully achieving risk management programs.

In the community of choice, the elderly individuals were reporting high rates of falls and thus
identified as the high priority area. There was the implementation of fall prevention and reduction
program in the community as a result of the high rates of falls.
The Key Organizations and Agencies
Some of the agencies that are responsible of regulating the provision of quality care
include: The Joint Commission on Accreditation of Health Care Organizations (JCAHO); the
Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ); the Joint Commission and Healthcare
Quality Promotion (DHQP) and the National Committee for Quality Assurance (NCQA). AHRQ
is mainly aimed at performing research to ensure improvement in the quality of care provided to
patients, and their safety too. JCAHO is aimed at making sure that all the healthcare institutions
are able to provide quality care to patients (Jiménez-Rodríguez et al., 2018). DHQP is in charge of
offering protection to patients, the different healthcare providers and also ensures the promotion
of quality care. NCQA works toward making sure that different care plans meet the required
quality standards. The joint commission works toward ensuring that different healthcare
organization are able to enhance the quality of care they provide; ensure the safety of different
patients and lower the chances of medical errors in healthcare institutions.
The Process of Evaluation and Compliance
The chosen risk management program aligns with the outlined requirements of the joint
commission that works toward ensuring the safety of patients and offering of quality care. The
DHQP requirements are also met through the improvement of the safety of patients. The joint
commission plays a significant role in ensuring that different healthcare institutions are able to
prevent falls and different injuries associated to them (Lam et al., 2018). The fall prevention

program makes all individuals aware through education on the significance of preventing falls.
Safety information is communicated effectively to the community and different healthcare
providers. It is important to note that the prevention of falls is everyone’s responsibility.
The Recommendations
There is a need to integrate patient education on the risk of falls in the chosen program.
The Joint Commission is in charge of offering support to raise awareness about the risk of falls.

Different stakeholders are educated on the relevant prevention strategies of falls. There is a need
for the fall prevention program to adopt the interprofessional approach. The Joint Commission
through the interprofessional team is to be established to come up with a whole approach in dealing
with reduction and prevention of falls. There is a need to make use of standardized and validated
tools in identifying different risk factors for falls in the community. To inform improvement
efforts, there is a need to perform Post-Fall management, and reevaluation of individuals who have
successfully sustained falls.
