2011 promises to be an exciting year for interacting and sharing some of the best thinking going on in healthcare today! We invite you to join us — whether a nursing, allied health, or administrative professional — as we continue to grow and develop our Continuing Education offerings.
This year, our popular Deep Discovery Series continues, bringing to Kansas City some of the top thought leaders in the country. Programs are tailored to meet content needs expressed by our many repeat attendees. Jean Watson, PhD, RN, AHN-BC, FAAN joins the growing list of "Legends" for the Lessons from Legends program this year (3/11) — and in October (10/20–21) we will explore the concepts of TeamSTEPPS™, an evidence-based system aimed at optimizing patient outcomes by improving communication and other teamwork skills among healthcare professionals. Pre-registration is required for Deep Discovery programs.
We continue to offer the Emerging Trends Series — cutting-edge programs that feature the work of scholars and scientists from the University of Kansas Medical Center community. This noon-time series, co-sponsored by the University of Kansas Department of Health Policy and Management, is free of charge with registration at the program, and the topics are revolutionary and relevant! We invite you to get to know the experts in our midst. Programs are offered on the third Tuesday of most months (summer excluded).
We are pleased to recognize continued financial support from the Eisenbise Executive Development Series Fund, and our program co-sponsors: Children’s Mercy Hospitals and Clinics, Kansas City, Mo.; Liberty Hospital, Liberty, Mo.; North Kansas City Hospital, Kansas City, Mo.; Providence Medical Center, Kansas City, Kan. & St. John Hospital, Leavenworth, Kan.; and The University of Kansas Hospital, Kansas City, Kan. The support of our co-sponsors is welcomed and valued as this support helps to reduce the cost per program for all participants.
The University of Kansas School of Nursing and KU HealthPartners, Inc. have an illustrious history of providing quality continuing education and we think you will find our program offerings exciting and relevant. Rather than a series of separate programs, we aim to make it possible for you to plan your education for the entire year. We hope you will make KU your "choice" continuing education provider for a wide range of topics!
