[LHDAccreditation] Introduction

[Crozier, Pat]

Welcome to your new position.  In Linn County ( Albany, OR) we are
slowly working on accreditation. There are steps we need to get in place
before even thinking of applying -such as QI work, strategic Plan, and
finish a community assessment. There remain questions about the
accreditation process such as the cost to apply- and if the process will
change before officially launched.  I suspect we will not be ready to
apply for another year -  Will be interested in others perspectives,

Good morning!
 
I would like to introduce myself to the group. I am the newly hired
Performance Improvement Manager for the Infrastructure grant. Been in
this position for about three weeks, one of which was spent traveling to
Atlanta! Prior to this role, I was the PHD Transformation Project
Manager, leading our divisional participation in developing continuous
quality improvement skills and capacity. Truly love CQI and am excited
to expand my world and understanding to the public health system level.
 
Question for you! How are the LHDs feeling about accreditation and
applying once the effort is officially launched? I imagine there is a
range of experience, just like within PHD. 
 
Looking forward to learning from and with you. These are exciting times
for public health.
 
Lydia
