What I'm looking for
I am a dedicated healthcare operations and quality leader with over 19 years of experience in building and leading clinical quality programs across various settings, including hospitals, rehabilitation, and dialysis. My career has been marked by a proven track record of driving regulatory readiness and implementing quality infrastructures that enhance patient safety and organizational excellence.
At Schwab Rehabilitation, I successfully directed initiatives that resulted in a 15% reduction in patient falls and maintained zero CLABSI rates for over 20 consecutive months. My strategic thinking and hands-on leadership in clinical education and EMR optimization have been pivotal in restoring full compliance during rigorous surveys. I am passionate about creating scalable, measurable quality systems that ensure safe and effective care.
Throughout my career, I have built a Total Quality Management program across multiple states and have led successful CMS and accreditor surveys. I thrive in collaborative environments and am committed to continuous quality improvement, staff training, and interdisciplinary team leadership.
