Increasing primary care access: Practical, clinic driven quality improvement

Session description

Primary care nurse practitioner Aubrey Tollefson is joining HQC on Dec. 13 to discuss practical, clinic driven quality improvement and why it should matter to you. Participants will leave the session with an idea of how to set up a simple initiative in their own clinic or workspace to improve their clinic functioning, work/life balance, and patient satisfaction and safety.
