Healthcare Project Management

Introduction to How Project Management Best Practices Can Positively Impact the World of Healthcare

Healthcare project leaders - Have you ever wondered why the programs at your organization aren't fully adopted? Why it feels like each department works in a silo instead of resembling actual teammates? Why the ball gets dropped so often? Why there's so much miscommunication?

The answer may be that your organization isn't following some fundamental project management (PM) best practices.

This course is designed for the healthcare project management (PM) novice. As a physical therapist, I was tasked with managing all kinds of projects without the slightest idea of project management best practices (and without the slightest idea that project management was even a thing!). My goal is to provide some foundational PM skills to those clinicians out there that have been tasked with implementing new programs or creating new processes in their organizations. My aim is to provide you with lessons learned, 'what I wish I had knowns', and basic skills to set you up for success in bringing your projects to completion!

Let the journey begin!
