Safety & Quality
Eye-opening new NAHQ research reveals just how differently quality is defined and approached across the industry, validating the critical need to align to one industry standard—the NAHQ Healthcare Quality Competency Frameworkâ„¢—if we are going to succeed at creating a competent and coordinated workforce ready to take on today's healthcare challenges. This session will demonstrate how Kaiser Permanente of Northern California successfully leveraged the framework to build competency and capacity within its workforce with remarkable results that leveled up individual contributions.
