Please note you must access each live Zoom session for its entirety in order to earn the associated CE credit(s). Then, you MUST complete the associated session evaluation; if you do not complete the session evaluation, you will not receive CE credit for that session.

For on-demand sessions:

In order to obtain CE credits for any on-demand CLIMB sessions, you must view the entire recording. Then, you must complete the associated post-test for the session. You will have three attempts to complete the post-test with a score of 80% or higher. If you do not pass the post-test after three attempts, you are NOT eligible to receive CE credit for that on-demand session.

    • Speaker McSpeaker, PhD


    Description: 

    • When you walk into an organization as a new manager or director in the Medical Staff Services Department (MSSD), there are certain processes and functions you assume are in place. Well, you know what happens when you assume! Even though you asked the right questions during your interview, after completing your first week, you soon realize they didn’t paint an accurate picture. It is evident the interviewer did not fully understand the ins and outs of an MSSD. This session is a case study that will examine various situations that MSSDs face on multiple levels. How do you navigate a change in leadership? How do you manage a new team that does not have any institutional knowledge? How do you prioritize anything when everything is urgent? What if everything in the MSSD “needs fixed” and you find yourself shaking your head thinking, “You can’t make this stuff up?!” This session will focus on key aspects you’ll find in every high-functioning medical staff services department and explore common situations that currently exist in facilities across the country. We will share real-life experiences of unexpected situations and discuss how we revamped existing processes and created new ones in order to achieve better results.
