Goal Development
Goal Development Tips Develop quantifiable goals.
Goal Scales 5 = Stretch 4 = Partial Stretch 3 = Goal 2 = Partial Accomplishment 1 = No Accomplishment
Example Goal with Rating Scale Goal Rating Scale Increase the number of visits to 200 5 is ≥ 250 4 is 225 to 249 3 is 200 to 224 2 is 150 to 199 1 is ≤ 149
LEM Score Distribution 3 3 1 2 3 4 Opportunity Target 5 Excellent
Example LEM Results 147 Average Score = 3. 07 72 39 17 0 1 1 2 2 3 3 4 4 5 5
Goal Development Tips Develop quantifiable goals. Use language that everyone understands. Connect goals to purpose. Fewer, rather than more goals, are better.
Goal Development Tips – Cont. It is not always practical to have a goal under each pillar. Goals should be aggressive yet realistic. Focus on results, not tactics or projects.
Goal or Tactic? Conduct employee evals on time Improve staff productivity Round on 100% of inpatients Attend all leadership development sessions Pass OSHA inspection
Define how much time goal must be sustained For fiscal year-to-date (FYTD) For the month of December For the 4 th quarter For last 6 months of the year
SMART Goals are Specific Measurable Attainable Realistic Time-bound
What might not fit as goals: Standards of performance Subjective and vague statements Tactics to achieve goals Maintaining regulatory compliance Routine job activities
Middle Management Common Goals (Examples) Budget Patient Perception of Care Interdepartmental Satisfaction Employee Engagement Core Measures Patient Fall Rate
