Effective education for patient focused staff. To be successful, you must fill the wide "gaps" between today's capabilities and tomorrow's needs.
In summary, your staff's Patient Focused education must be realigned to their unique clinical, non-clinical and multidisciplinary needs if a restructuring program is be successful. Without this realignment, traditional education services will be inadequate to meet these needs and your program may eventually fail. Perhaps Naisbitt and Auburdene said it best: "By identifying the forces pushing the future, rather than those that have contained the past, you possess the power to engage with your reality." Filling the wide "gaps" between today's educational capabilities and tomorrow's educational needs is essential to making your Patient Focused vision a reality at your hospital.
