STRATEGIC PLANNING AND PROCESSES

Throughout the duration of this course, you will build a strategic plan for a healthcare
affiliated program (e.g., Telemedicine Services for Cancer Patients in Rural South
Carolina) of your choice. You will build upon the strategic plan throughout the SLP
assignments in this course.

For your Module 1 SLP, identify a healthcare-affiliated program that you are
interested in researching and developing a strategic plan for. Your topical area
should be specific and cater to a particular population and/or area. In 2–3 pages,
complete the following in Part 1 of your strategic plan:

Topic Relevance: In 1–2 paragraphs, explain your topic selection and its

your plan is trying to achieve. Your mission and vision statements should each be
1 or 2 sentences followed by a paragraph (for each statement) of explanation. For
additional information on the differences between the two statements, see There’s
