Overview

What can medical leaders do when a clinician models behaviors and performance that undermine the best attempts to create a safe and reliable healthcare environment?  Addressing this challenge requires the right people, processes, and data to promote early identification and effective peer-based interventions. For more than 20 years, The Vanderbilt Center for Patient and Professional Advocacy has engaged in research and supported hundreds of hospitals and medical groups to develop reliable and successful approaches to address the 3-5% of clinicians who demonstrate behaviors inconsistent with the values of the organization. This webinar will familiarize leaders with details of this peer-based graduated process.
