Help choose the PQCNC 2024 Initiative

We held our PQCNC Annual Meeting last Thursday at the McKimmon Center. We heard from awesome speakers and proceeded to review three proposed initiatives for next PQCNC projects. The presentations outstanding and prompted incredible discussion. We conducted dot voting to prioritize these projects. and will continue to receive input with online project review from PQCNC members over the next 2 weeks. 


So, now it's your turn.


PQCNC success is rooted in the belief that our stakeholders know best how to accomplish this mission. You were right about CLABSI, 39 weeks, SIVB and Primary Cesarean Sections, Maternal Milk in the NICU and Mother-baby Units, NAS and Preeclampsia, OBH, Antibiotic Stewardship, and clOUDi. 


Click the button below to find the presentations submitted for consideration. Review them and then follow the link on that page to indicate which of these projects you would be interested in working on and help us move closer to determining the next PQCNC Initiative - thanks to all of you for the incredible work you all have done on these many PQCNC projects over the years!

Register and Prepare for Learning Session 3

 It's time to begin working on your presentations for the Learning Session on October 27th. The session will be virtual and an opportunity for hospitals to highlight the successes and challenges of clOUDi to date. 

We have a template for hospital presentations - available here - allowing each team to report on the described activities. Key will be not just data but some report of the activities surrounding the reporting for metrics. Wins and persistent challenges you are confronting are all important elements of the clOUDI story. Please be willing to share all of these. We all teach, we all learn.
 
We hope we will see teams from all 53 clOUDi member hospitals on October 27th. Use the button below to register.
