Assignment Task:
Module: A Case for Using Risk Assessment Methods
For this assignment, you will need to review the Case Study presented and prepare a risk assessment report for Glenview Health System's telehealth expansion project using the qualitative method.
Case Study:
Glenview Health System, a regional healthcare organization, is looking to expand their telehealth services. They are looking to provide telehealth services to the rural and underserved communities within their region at affordable prices. This project became a reality thanks to grant funding that will cover all of the implantation-related costs. A goal of the project is to implement an inclusive telehealth platform that integrates with the existing electronic health record system to ensure secure and streamlined patient care delivery. The telehealth project requires a significant technological investment and many shifts to current workflow processes.
Action Plan:
As the Information Systems Director, one of the project leads, you have identified potential risks associated with the telehealth expansion. Some of the potential risks are technological failures, data security issues, and user adoption challenges. Your team has been tasked with performing a thorough risk assessment using the qualitative risk assessment method to identify and prioritize the identified risks. You need to take into consideration factors such as likelihood, impact and prevention strategies.
Steps you will complete the following as part of your risk assessment plan presentation:
1. Identify potential risks related to the telehealth expansion project.
2. For your qualitative risk assessment, you will need to categorize and evaluate the identified risks based on their nature, potential impact, and the context for which they may result. It is recommended that you utilize a SWOT (Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities, Threats) Analysis and risk categorization (i.e., technological, organizational, environmental).
3. Create a list of prioritized risks. Focus on those with the greatest potential impact on the project. Looking for Assignment Help?
4. Propose mitigation strategies.
Your deliverable for your risk assessment plan is a PowerPoint presentation with slides that outline each of the risk analysis steps you completed with your recommendations for addressing the potential risks. For your PowerPoint slides, the slides should outline your key points/recommendations and utilize the Notes section under your slides to provide complete sentences for your report as if you were presenting to a board for approval to implement. Be sure to include graphical representations (i.e., table, bar chart, etc.) to provide a visual to emphasize your key points, as applicable.
Parameters: Be sure to include a title slide and a reference slide if needed. A minimum of 5 content slides (excluding the title slide and potential reference slide), with a maximum of 8 content slides.
Note: If you utilize your textbook or any references to support your recommendations, provide a reference list.
