Why are \"Mission Statements\" important in healthcare organizations

Solution

Mission statements are basically an answer to the question, why a particular company exists. A mission statement broadly states what the company plans to do now. A mission statement is important for all organizations as without them company plans can wander aimlessly without reaching a point. It gives an organization the purpose and meaning and helps communicate to their prospective employees as to why would they be wanting to work for this company. It also motivates your employees by letting them know what exactly they need to achieve.

Now particularly in health organizations, it becomes all the more important because it is a sensitive industry dealing with the lives of millions of people. Mission for any organization could be increasing the share holder wealth, but this can\'t be the case with healthcare organizations, well being of your customers (patients) should be high on your agenda.
