This session is a "crash course" in gastrointestinal(GI)-specific leadership components for new leaders. Each of the session leaders manages a GI facility, one in a hospital setting and one in a freestanding GI ambulatory surgery center. They will cover design and flow issues, patient selection, sedation issues, staffing protocols, equipment selection and processing, infection control, benchmarking, clinical and financial critical indicators, and processes to enhance efficiency.
Section Description
We are pleased to present the abstracts from SGNA's 33rd Annual Course, SGNA on a Mission: Exceeding Expectations. The diversity of these topics certainly reflects the richness and breadth of our specialty. In keeping with the tradition of the Annual Course, we hope the following abstracts will encourage discussions for improving nursing practice and patient care outcomes.
