We invite you to view our informative webinar:
Do You Have a Healthy Peer Review Environment?
Presented By: Dr. Skip Freedman and Andrew G. Rowe.
The most powerful factor that influences the effectiveness of hospital peer review activities is the organization’s culture – the beliefs, norms, and values – spoken or unspoken – that form
the basis for performance improvement attitudes and behaviors. Understanding the essential elements of a supportive peer review culture is the first step toward creating a healthy environment in which peer review can flourish. Discover how to recognize and correct the causes of peer review inadequacies.
Learn strategies for:
- Spotting the strengths and weaknesses in your peer review culture
- Reducing the influence of harmful attitudes and behaviors
- Transforming peer review into an educational, nonpunitive activity
- Increasing the link between quality improvement and peer review functions
- Building the catalyst for culture change in your organization
By watching this webinar you will learn how to create a more effective peer review system that achieves your performance improvement goals. Participants will receive a peer review scorecard. This self-assessment tool is designed to prompt participants to think carefully about the cultural deficiencies that are undermining peer review successes in their organization. In the webinar participants will discover which steps are necessary for creating a more supportive atmosphere for peer review activities.
Webinar Agenda:
- Warning signs of an unhealthy peer review environment
