In the health care industry, change occurs quickly and many times without warning. In an effort to address such changes, contingency planning is a key step in the strategic planning process. Contingency planning follows a 7-step process to achieve maximum effectiveness. Assume that you are formulating the contingency plans for an outpatient surgical center.
- Identify the 7 steps in the contingency planning process, and explain how each step will be addressed for the surgical center.
- Be sure to provide a properly cited response that includes references
