Discussion 1: Social Change

Our vision of healthy people in healthy communities cannot be achieved without understanding...effective initiatives that will improve those environments and make demonstrable progress toward health equity.

-Fielding (2015, p. S23)

Your role as a health care administrator is vital toward promoting effective health care delivery for your agency or organization. More importantly, those health programs or health care services that you might be involved in developing will directly impact the communities and populations served by your agency or organization. With a finger on the pulse of social change and a commitment toward enhancing health care delivery, the impact that you create will truly inspire social change.
