The composition of the team is quite good, considering the equality, diversity, and inclusiveness were critical selection criteria. St John’s Hospital has a very diverse workforce, with employees coming from different racial and ethnic backgrounds (Inegbedion et al., 2020).

Therefore, the current composition of the team stands at three white Caucasians; one nurse, one doctor and the hospital’s administrator, three African Americans, two nurses and one doctor, one doctor of Asian origin, and two Hispanics representing members of the hospital’s support staff.
