MAYO CLINIC

Mayo Clinic

Health care is the maintenance or improvement of health via prevention, diagnosis and treatment of disease, illness, injury and other physical and mental impairments in people. It may vary across countries, communities and individuals largely influenced by social and economic conditions as well as health policies. Providing health care services means “the timely use of personal health’s services to achieve the best possible health outcomes.” Factors to consider in terms of health care assess include financial limitations, geographical barriers and personal limitations.

Health care systems are organizations established to meet the health needs of targeted populations. A well-functioning health care system requires a financing mechanism, a well-trained and adequately paid workforce, reliable information on which to base decisions and policies, and well-maintained health facilities to deliver quality medicines and technologies (Clin Oral Investing, 2018). An efficient health care system can contribute to a significant part of the country’s economy, development and industrialization.

In my project, the organization I selected is Mayo Clinic. The reason for choosing it is because it is mostly ranked the top ten among the best organizations in the US. It contains the best facilities that is advanced technologies and clinical research trials. Most well-known specialists like William James Mayo who is not only the son of the founder on the clinic but also an excellent surgeon, John Kirkland who developed the first commercial heart-lung bypass machine and Earl Wood who is known for the development of G-suit in the US.

Mayo Clinic is a nonprofit academic medical center based in Rochester, Minnesota, focused on integrated clinical practice, education and research. It specializes in treating difficult cases throughout tertiary care and destination medicine. It spends over $660 million a year on research and has more than 3000 full time research personnel. It has major campuses in Arizona and Florida being ranked among the best and maintaining that position for over 27 years.

For more than 100 years, millions of people from all walks of life have found answers at Mayo clinic. These patients tell us they leave Mayo clinic with peace of mind knowing they received care from the world’s leading experts. Mayo clinic is the first and largest integrated not for profit group in the world. At Mayo, a team of specialists is assembled to take their time and listen, understand and care for patient’s health issues and concerns. These teams draw from more than 3700 physicians, 50 scientists, and 100 allied staff that work at Mayo’s campuses based in Minnesota, Florida and Arizona.

Mayo clinic’s organization structure is majorly of the matrix form. The authority flows down ranking from the highest rank which is the board of trustees and the rest. The board of trustees are the top ranks having the greatest responsibility. The president and the chief executive officer follow, and their major role is subjecting an oversight and authority of the board of trustees. The board of governors/executive committee of board of trustees who subject to the over site authority and approval of board of trustees and the flow continues with each rank having different responsibilities.

Mayo clinic has a diverse inventory of facilities and real estate. The inventory includes clinics, hospitals, research facilities, educational facilities, administrative, power plants, parking ramps, healthy living, senior housing and warehousing. These facilities are managed locally within coordinated Mayo clinic expectations. Facilities related procurement recognizes the benefits of local suppliers and professionals for most facilities work. Specialized projects will generate the review of national resources. It has developed design, construction and service contract forms and agreements.

Checking at this year’s client base, 1.3 million people from all 50 states and 136 countries came to Mayo clinic. Mayo clinic and its staff often collaborate with industries to improve patient care through research improvements. Considering statistics based on Mayo clinic’s data base, total clinic patients are roughly around 1.3 million, hospital admissions around 128,500 and hospital days of patient care is 632,700 (Am J Clin Nutr, 2016). Mayo clinic deals with a large client base since it consists of customers from all over the world specifically because of its advanced technology and its ability to deal with many conditions. It’s also because of its capability to treat customers with care as per the praises it receives from almost all of its customers.

Mayo clinic is a leading academic research and medical institution with a research budget of more than $625 million. Students and postdoctoral research partners have the opportunity to work on a wide range of research projects in state of art facilities. More than 200 research laboratories at Mayo clinic are led by highly successful independent investigators working on basic research, disease-oriented research and clinical research. Access to clinical data from more than 6 million patient histories provide an invaluable resource in translational research, linking these research activities and premier medical center at Mayo clinic.

More than 700 students and postdoctoral research follows train at Mayo clinic each year. They are a critical component at Mayo’s vibrant research community. Mayo clinic offers medical and graduate training and postdoctoral science training (Behav Neurosci, 2018). It serves much like a provost’s office does at other academic medical needs. Research recently pursue discoveries that will deliver cures and better health to people today and for generations to come.

The organization is committed to creating a caring service environment while ensuring that individual differences are valued at energy level of the organization. The mission is to be recognized by patients, employees, peer institutions and community as the leading model for diversity and inclusion. The mission is to inspire hope and contribute to health by providing the best care to every patient through integrated clinical practice, education and research.

Its vision is to provide an unparalleled experience as the most trusted Partner for health care valuing the needs of patients first. Mayo is defined by goals set to achieve mission. They include caring with awareness (providing high quality culturally appropriate care), reflecting the community through increasing the diversity of patients, welcoming all, balancing opportunities (increase proportion of women and minority students), developing talent, pursuing health equity and many more.

Study confirms that Mayo clinic is a national economic force, report showing its remarkable moments of sharing. The clinic provides many additional benefits to households, businesses, government and other organizations across the US. Its unique integration of clinical care, research and education creates connections that lead a meaningful impact on patients, researchers, medical students and communities.

The “live well. Be well” is an example of a community outreach and education program at Mayo clinic in Florida. It aims to educate African Americans about cancer and importance of living a healthy lifestyle. This is because, African Americans have higher rates of death from cancer than any other race. The Mayo clinic in Florida also sponsors the community research advisory board, a group of local community members that review community based research projects. Looking at a situation like in December 2018 when Mayo clinic provided additional support to many human service organizations across its communities of operation. Mental health first aid class is also created in response to community needs in Florida and many more examples.

Mayo clinic creates more than 16,700 job post nationwide through its employer multiplier effect. Its foundation is based on compassion for the sick and for more than 150years, it has worked on improving lives of people around the world (Diabetes Care, 2019). It serves patients in nearly 140 countries partnering with communities to advance community health, fuel economic growth, embrace diversity and inclusion and promote environmental sustainability.

Based on studies, every dollar spent on Mayo operations, supplies and personnel generates an additional $2.05 for the overall national economy. Looking at a case like in 2008 when Mayo invested $391 million of its own funds into research and education activities and since it is the world’s largest independent nonprofit research and development organization performing more than $5 billion in research, it’s a big benefit all over the world in more than one way.
