- Contribute to the organizational strategic plan goal to improve the delivery of care related to nursing quality and safety by developing, revising and/or reviewing policies related to quality and safety.
- Monitor and evaluate compliance with CMS Conditions of Participation (COPs) related to nursing and safe environment of care by completing Medication Management & CAUTI audits and dissemination of results.
