Discuss the key political, economic, and social forces that may have influenced the development of the clinic. Political forces that can have an influence on the development of this clinic could be ;how much of the states budget is allocated to healthcare and how that money is distributed amongst the state. It can also determine what positions will be funded, what equipment will be purchased, what programs should be adopted, and which current programs should be dropped. Social forces that can influence the development of this clinic could include; traditions, values and social trends of its community and patients. Its location could also have an influence because if it is in a poor location where the population is small, services may not be in high demand. It is very important that the stakeholders continuously assess the changing values, attitudes, and demographic characteristic to continue providing optimal care. Depending on the nature and direction of the local economy, wage rates, disposable income, unemployment and transportation can all have an economic influence on the development of the clinic.
