Change in the health care system is driven by a number of strong forces that promise to continue into the foreseeable future. Some of driving forces of changeinclude:a) increasing cost, b) constantly changing technology, c) an aging population, d) increasing diversity of population and the workforce, and e) changing disease patterns and treatmentOf all these shaping forces, the pressing need to provide good quality care at a reasonable cost is probably the one most strongly felt on a daily basis by nurses. The forces of change shape the way nurses and other providers give care. They determine where care is given, how it is given, and even how we think about health care issues.??

Identify the one category that has the greatest challenge to your unit, and develop in your paper the reason why?Part 2To get a feeling for the experience of change as it is felt?? by nurse managers in the workplace, arrange to interview at least one nurse manager (this could be your manager or another manager of your choice). I would like you to discuss their experience related to change in the health care workplace. It would be ideal to interview someone who has been in his/her position a long time so they will have a past to share with you (A.K.A. experienced more change).Use the following questions to guide your interview and document the conversation (of course, you may personalize you interview adding your own questions):1. Are you familiar with the National Healthcare Reform and Institute of Medicines Future of Nursing Report2. How do you think these changes/recommendations will impact this institution3. How is the institution preparing for these changes/recommendations4. How do you feel about these changes and recommendations5. How do you think these changes/recommendations will impact your role6. Are you currently doing anything different because of these changes/recommendationsPart 3Summary and closing remarksSince this is a reflective paper, you will want to reflect on how you feel about these changes and recommendations. You can reflect on the questions that you asked the Nurse Manager when preparing your reflection. Include in your reflection how you felt about what you learned in your interview.Part 4A.P.A. reference page will be included. Please cite all articles used in your literature review discussing the changes in health care.
