PLANNING

INTRODUCTION

Planning is working out a broad outline, the things that need to be done and the
methods for doing them to accomplish the purpose set for the organizations.
Planning requires preparing for a future that is often impossible to predict, and so
must incorporate uncertainty. Forecasts should usually describe ranges and
probabilities rather than point estimates, and plans should usually incorporate
contingencies. Planning is an intellectual process where one has to visualize and
foresee a situation with its related activities prior to its actual occurrence, anticipate
its outcome, possible advantages and disadvantages based on the date available on
available resources, human and materialistic and financial and other constraints.

It is the responsibility of top level authority, which is the policy


making body, to do overall planning. The authority may be government, public or
private agency. Its primary objective is to meet the health needs of the community.
In the process of Planning, all relevant aspects have to be investigated the most
important aspect being nursing service. The principle of investigation must be
followed in planning. For this purpose, the person who is delegated the direction of
a particular sphere of activities must be consulted. There should be an effective
line of communication between the directing authority and the operating authority.
The importance of channels of communication is that each member should know
and understand not only her part of it, but also the part which others have to play.

MEANING

 Planning refers to deciding in advance (what, who, when, where and how)
about something is to be done.
 It is a continuous process, beginning with the setting of goals and objectives
and then laying out a plan of action to accomplish them, put them into play,
review the process and the outcomes, provide feedback to personnel and
modify as needed.
 Planning occurs at many levels, from day-to-day decisions made by
individuals and families, to complex decisions made by businesses and
governments.
 Planning is a process of setting formal guidelines and constrints for the
behavior of the organization.
 Planning is the process of coping with uncertainty by formulating courses of
action to achieve specified results.
 A plan is a specific documented intention consisting of an objective (end)
and an action statement (means).
 In other words plan is a ‘written blueprint’. Without a plan, the only way
you get where you are going is by accident. So plan converts possibility in to
probability.

attempting to achieve a consistent coordinate structure of operations aimed
at the desired results.

to be accomplished?

PLANNING FOR THE ESTABLISHMENT OF COLLEGE OF NURSING

issued by Indian Nursing Council.

OBJECTIVES

Objectives or goals are the ends towards which activity is aimed- they are the
results to be achieved. They represent not only the endpoint of planning, but the
end toward which organizing, staffing, leading, and controlling are aimed.

MISSIONS

 The mission or purposes identifies the basic function or task of an enterprise


or agency or of any part of it. Every kind of organized operation has, or at
least should have if it is to be meaningful, purposes or missions. In every
social system, enterprises have a basic function or task which is assigned to
them by society. For example, the purpose or mission of the a business
generally is the production and distribution of goods and services.
 The purpose of a university is teaching and research.

PHILOSOPHY

The philosophy of an organization is typically embedded in the mission statement.


A careful reading of the mission statement will usually provide a good
understanding of the institutional philosophy or value system. Mission statement
with phrases such as ‘without consideration for ability to pay,’ ‘With respect for
the dignity of each elderly resident,’ provide clues to the type of service that you
could expect from an organization. In the best of words, there is congruence
between the stated mission, vision, philosophy, values, and the behavior of the
organization.

 The philosophy articulates a vision and provides a statement of beliefs and


values that directs one’s practice.
 It should be written, included in appropriate documents and reviewed
periodically.
 Philosophy should not be stated in vague and useless terms.
 Conflicting philosophies between overlapping units cause and should be
avoided.
 When developing or re-evaluating a philosophy, the manager should
consider theory, education, practice, research and the nurse’s role in the total
organization.
 A theory might be adopted and integrated into philosophy or another might
be referred to throughout.
 Value of applying research findings to practice, support research efforts and
the nurse’s role in the overall in the philosophy.
