Abstract

Why formulate a philosophy statement? How may this statement influence organizational life? Answers to these questions affirm the practical utility of a philosophy within a health care facility. In addressing the first question, consideration is given to the philosophical questions by whom, to whom, and for what purpose is the organization sent. Also considered are its purpose in relating to and mode of relating to its patients. The practical place of a philosophy is illustrated through the difference between for-profit and non-profit corporations. A close analysis of organizational structure, systems, and strategies details this difference.
