All-Staff Forum: Quality in Action February 17!
Quality is not just about numbers or statistics, it’s about providing the best patient/client quality care possible in our everyday work and it’s in everything we do. Quality is also about making enhancements to serve our clients even better.
Register and join us for the first All-Staff Forum of the year!
When? Wednesday, February 17 at 2:30 – 3:30PM (with a Quality Fair to follow from 3:30 – 4:00 PM)
Where? VGH Paetzold Auditorium (webcast options are available)
Find out how some of your colleagues are making a difference to the quality of care we provide to our patients and clients through rapid fire presentations.
Speakers include:
- Nancy Desrosiers, Executive Director of Quality & Patient Safety
- George Scotton – Innovative Partnerships in Mental Health Care
- Jenifer Tabamo and Doris Bohl – Recognizing Early Sepsis Signs Improves Patient Care
- Caitlin Etherington – DTES 2nd Generation work with Peers to improve care
- Sandra Li – UP! Implementation of Early Progressive Mobility of ICU Patients
Speakers will then participate in a quality panel where they’ll be asked about what made for successful outcomes, what barriers and frustrations they faced along the way and the benefits to patient/client quality care. Then, it’s your turn to ask questions of the panel. Come prepared for an exciting discussion.
