Live, In-Person CME/CE Program for Physicians, Nurses, and Allied Health Professionals

The objective of this program is to meet 1-2 hours of the STATE of PENNSYLVANIA CME requirement and familiarize health care professionals with performance improvement methodologies, techniques, and processes that will have a positive and immediate impact on improving patient safety and significantly reducing medical errors.

Topics covered include:

• Techniques for Optimum Communication
• Preventing Medical, Surgical, and Medication Errors
• Avoiding Healthcare-Acquired Conditions (HAIs)
• Improving Transition of Care
• Fall Prevention
• Ensuring Safe Discharges
• Reducing Hospital Readmissions

Dr. Mackles presented his informative and entertaining program entitled The Prevention of Medical Errors. The program was so successful that we have asked Dr. Mackles to return to facilitate another program on Hospital Risks and Patient Safety Issues at our facility. Dr. Mackles has also been invited to present another informative lecture at our sister hospital in Hialeah. We feel fortunate to have a leading professional who is willing and able to share his experience and knowledge with us so that we can continually improve our service to our patients.
