Abstract: | <p>This article presents the findings from a research study which assessed the content and impact of mission statements in not-for-profit Health Care organizations. The study especially sought to determine if a relationship existed between selected mission statement components and various hospital performance indicators. The findings suggest that there are indeed particular mission statement components which are more important to include in a mission statement than others. Hosp ital administrators should therefore pay close attention to these items when developing their organizati on's mission statement. The research also suggests that satisfaction with how well certain items are written into a hospital's mission statement is important to a hospital's performance.</p> |
