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

The objective of this program is to 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. These improvements and easy-to-implement strategies are introduced by nationally renowned physician / speaker Arnold Mackles. Dr. Mackles has addressed medical audiences throughout the United States and his message is timely, effective, and his presentation style engaging and motivating. His programs are supported by highly credible references from well-respected CME and health care professionals.

Simplifying Patient Safety covers areas of health care that have particularly high rates of medical errors and provides physicians and health care professionals with specific strategies to measurably improve patient safety and avoid common mistakes. Topics include:

• New Joint Commission Sentinel Event Alerts
• Techniques to Improve Handoffs and Transitions
• Reducing Hospital Readmissions
• Global Strategies for Error Reduction and Prevention
• Physicians Role as Patient Safety Leaders
• Efficacy of Patient Safety Technology

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.
