Get Down to Business with a Business Plan (1 Hour)

This class focused on the business side of leadership in nursing. It is so important for nurse leaders to understand that healthcare really is a business. In order to effectively change things, nurses need to understand the business of healthcare. This course educated me on what a business plan is and how to create one. This will be important for me to understand in my career. If I see a service that is needed in my workplace, I will be able to create a proposal to present to the administration. As a nurse leader I will want to bring about change many times over the course of my career. In order to do this, I will need to have the skills needed to create proposals, business plans and presentations. These are all forerunners to change.
