TRANSITIONAL CARE Scenario
Type of Care Provided
Transitional care is a moderate-to long-term facility that focuses on therapy, wound care, and medical
management of chronic diseases. Individuals within transitional care can range from low need or minimal
care to individuals who are total care patients needing 24hr nursing assistance. These facilities are often
known as Long-Term care, skilled nursing, or subacute rehab facilities.
Scenario
Kalia recently accepted the chief executive officer (CEO) position at a steadily declining transitional care
organization. After meeting with the board of trustees, she was eager to demonstrate how her vision
would change the direction of the failing company. Her hope was to discover allies within the company
that could help make it easier to put her plan for the company into action. However, she soon found that
her formal authority as CEO had been severely undermined by the pervious CEO, whose practice had
been to distribute power within the organization, but had poorly managed those to whom he gave power.
During Kalias first week, she arranged her schedule so that she could meet with administrative staff as
soon as possible. During the meeting, Kalia requested budget information for each manager. None of
the administrative staff were able to obtain the information for Kalia. They told her that company financial
information was considered classified and could only be accessed through Manny, the chief financial
officer (CFO) the managers were not able to monitor their own budgets. One individual volunteered that
sometimes the CFOs administrative assistant would allow people to review reports, if the CFO was out
and she liked you.
After the meeting, Kalia went to Dominic, the chief information officer (CIO), to see if a centralized shared
network could be created so employees could access important and sensitive data necessary for staff
to make business decisions. Dominic informed her that the system was complicated, and that he was
the only one familiar with how it was set up. He also told her that he would be going on paternity leave,
and no one else could be trusted with the system. Therefore, a project like that could not begin until he
returned. Dominic suggested that, in the meantime, Kalia begin the request with Manny, the CFO, as he
would need to approve the budget for the project because it would be costly.
Kalia walked to Mannys office. As soon as she walked in, Manny said, I heard you dont think that the
way I handle finances is acceptable. I have 26 years of experience, plus dual masters degrees in accounting and finance. I am surprised that a young woman starting out would consider herself an expert.
Kalia was surprised by Mannys comments, and she was equally surprised to turn and see two of her
administrative staff sitting on the couch in Mannys office. Uncertain of how to respond, Kalia turned and
walked back to her office. In her office, Kalia sat down at her desk and put her face in her hands. She
was now questioning everything she thought she knew about the company, being the CEO, and why
she was hired.
