Why is organization culture so important? What is the relationship between an

organizations structure and its culture? The culture of the organization is vitally
crucial because it determines how successful or can be the downfall of the healthcare
organization. If the culture is venomous there is a high turnover rate, law suites which

can be the demise of the facility. On the flip side if the culture is compassionate
employees tend to strive to achieve personal goals and put forth all efforts to support
the facility reach their vision. The culture holds the organization together and it converts
as the union of PRMC and BRMC come together.
How should the organizations vision, mission and values reflect the
organizations culture and strategies? The center focus of the healthcare
organization is the patient. The vision/mission should emphasis on the present day, in
addition to, where the organization hopes to be in the future.
In the future, what data or artifacts would indicate if the organizations behaviors
are congruent with its mission, vision and values? Conducting patient surveys
gives firsthand information on the quality of care provided from the client. However
being recognized with awards and accolades nationally speaks volumes for an
organization. The American Hospital Association and The Malcolm Baldrige National
Quality Award both are two prestigious awards that provide recognition to healthcare
facilities. Receipt of such acknowledgement holds a lot of weight when determining if
the organization is following its mission/vision and values.
