Program Description: Culture is the character of an organization. It touches every part of a business, the service
it provides, the clients it serves and, ultimately, affects its financial performance. While quality elements are defined and regulated in hospice and palliative
care, it is easy for the associated reporting to become just that, a report. What if quality became a member of your team, with a clear job description and
introduced to every new team member on day one? With a clear understanding of how a culture of quality can positively impact patient care, improve employee
satisfaction, regulatory and financial performance, hospice and palliative care leaders can take their quality programming from mundane to meaningful.
