Cathy Dolan-Schweitzer
While "Patient-Centered" has become the buzzword du jour in healthcare, it is more than that to Cathy. When Cathy was diagnosed with ovarian cancer in 2011, she was able to view the hospital environment from a chemotherapy patient's unique perspective. That unique perspective has given Cathy the ability to develop and train excellent health-care project managers who are true leaders:
They:
• hold the vision of healing environments that align with the organizations mission
• understand each stakeholders role in patient-centered care
• motivate stakeholders to solve the problems that will maximize quality of care
• organize the resources necessary to complete the project
• represent the beliefs, concerns and needs of all stakeholders
Her flagship workshop "DONE" approach includes an
"Understanding of Healing and a Balance of Process"
that focuses on:
• Healthy Patient
• Healthy Team
• Healthy Project
This disciplined approach of "DONE" coaches your clinical and construction teams of the "HOW" of patient centered environments team management. The "DONE" approach helps to maximize team wisdom, skill and vision, and translates clinical to construction common language so as a group they can effectively communicate with each other to get a project "DONE"
Integrating the 4 C's
