Improving Healthcare Outcomes

This presentation addresses how biases and health system policies and programs can impact healthcare outcomes. Actionable steps to mitigate the impact of bias on quality care outcomes will be shared.

The ANPD Preceptor Competency Consensus Study

Although preceptors are critical to the transition of nursing students and nurses into professional practice, new settings, and new specialties, consensus on the required preceptor competencies was lacking. The national, multi-year, multi-phased ANPD Preceptor Competency Consensus Study addressed this gap. Join us to discover the competencies that should be included in your preceptor development initiatives as well as to learn about the competency consensus process.

Measuring NPD Value: Beyond the ROI Calculations

We've practiced how to calculate ROI, but NPD practitioners still struggle with transforming their economic impact to clear demonstration of NPD value. This session will discuss: WHO are your stakeholders, HOW do you communicate with them, WHAT is organizational savvy, and WHEN to advocate for NPD practitioner development. By increasing the NPD sphere of influence, the value of NPD becomes more transparent.
