The healthcare industry has undergone considerable transformations during the past decades becoming a sphere where people expect to receive a variety of high-quality services related to their (or their close ones’) health and wellness. In order to gain a competitive advantage, health-related companies have to pay more attention to organizational behavior and culture. The analysis of employees’ performance, attitudes, communication patterns, and motivation is critical for the development of a strong organizational culture that can ensure excellent performance of an organization (Borkowski, 2016). This paper includes an assessment of the current organizational culture at a skilled nursing facility (SNF) and a description of the changes to be implemented to create a collaborative culture and improve the organization’s performance. Organizational Behavior Review and Assessment The skilled nursing facility under consideration consists of such units as long-term nursing home, acute care and recovery, respite care, and respiratory and physical rehabilitation. In order to assess the facility’s organizational culture, it is necessary to consider the central aspects of organizational behavior that should be addressed in detail. Organizational behavior is a study of people’s behaviors within an organization, the interaction between people and the organization, as well as the behavior of the organization as a whole (Borkowski, 2016). When addressing these areas, it is important to concentrate on such aspects as attitudes and perceptions, motivation, and communication. People’s attitudes and perceptions shape their behavior, so these concepts deserve specific attention. Attitude can be defined as “a mind-set or a tendency to act in a particular way toward an object or entity… due to both an individual’s experience and temperament” (Borkowski, 2016, p. 47). Therefore, when analyzing employees’ attitudes and perceptions, the focus should be on their beliefs, values, personality traits, motivations, as well as behaviors (Borkowski, 2016). Perception is the human’s ability to process information and interpret certain sensations based on their experiences in order to produce new experiences. Motivation is a psychological process that implies the reaction to stimulus in order to achieve certain goals (Borkowski, 2016). Employees’ motivation is often associated with gaining some benefits (salary, perks, and other positive outcomes) through the display of a particular behavioral pattern (improved performance or involvement in specific processes). Finally, communication is the exchange and generation of information, ideas, emotions between senders and receivers (Borkowski, 2016). The brief description of the major components to be considered is instrumental in the effective analysis of the organizational culture at the facility in question. The attitudes and perceptions of the nursing staff of the skilled nursing facility are mainly positive and fair, which can be regarded as a positive trend. Healthcare professionals are overwhelmed with tasks, which may have a negative effect on their emotional state. However, they try to remain positive, committed to organizational goals, and complete tasks effectively. The attitude towards conflicts in the organization is rather negative, so nurses try to avoid any conflict situations. Another strength rel
