I combine my passions and expertise in patient safety, improvement, quality, risk management, education, regulatory/accreditation with decades of work in healthcare to help individuals and organizations.

As a Licensed RN, Risk Manager, Certified Accreditation Professional and Certified Professional in Healthcare Quality, I am dedicated to continuous improvement, building effective relationships and providing support to stakeholders, executive teams and boards of directors. Furthermore, I am a university professor and author, with over three decades of experience improving the design and delivery of safe quality health care. This experience includes aligning evidence-based practices with processes and implementing solutions to positively influence patient outcome and satisfaction. Additionally, my skills include driving strategies to increase integrative patient safety and quality healthcare delivery.

My experience settings include Acute Care/Hospital systems, Home Health Care, Managed Care, Consulting, Advisory Board, and providing University-level college instruction to international learners. My work has been published in Journal for Healthcare Quality, Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ), Advances in Patient Safety; New Directions and Alternate Approaches, Patient Safety and Healthcare Quality, Home Healthcare Nurse, and others.

Additionally, I provide educational, speaking and online learning opportunities to improve patient outcomes, regulatory compliance, patient safety, and performance improvement in various healthcare settings. I created HealthcareInfoSources.com, a free knowledge repository of hundreds of resources for Healthcare Professionals (and students) promoting and aligning clinical and operational excellence in areas such as Regulatory, Risk Management, Infection Prevention, Patient Safety, Quality, Performance Improvement, Policy and Procedure, Staff Education and more.
