Healthcare PlexusCalls

Beth and Shanda will talk about their own work in the area of sustainability and care for the environment. They will be calling in live from CleanMed 2016: Redefining Health Care Sustainability, a large national conference in Dallas, to report on what they are hearing that is new and inspiring. http://cleanmed.org 4-18-16

Vicki O’Day will share The Next System work; David Zuckerman will talk about a new business model that encourages hospitals to promote community health while also supporting the economic health of the community.

Healthcare is becoming more complex. Many health professions students are learning in linear environments influenced by measurement and finance that value individual knowledge and exceptionalism. Dr. Ankel and many colleagues believe the day of the autonomous physician is over. Upon graduation, these newly minted professionals are expected to thrive in non-linear environments that value improvement science, patient and family centered care, resource stewardship, and teaming behaviors. How do we design the health professions learning systems of tomorrow? How do we facilitate systems thinking to shape these environments? Our guests will talk about their own work in learning system design that facilitates the IHI Triple Aim, and teaming behavior. Dr. Ankel will describe 10 program milestones to help learning systems maximize resilience, the ability to manage complexity, and the ability to manage context. Ms. Noltimier will describe her journey in creating a health system program to train nurse practitioners and physician assistants. Felix Ankel, MD is the Vice President for health professional education at HealthPartners in Bloomington, MN. He is a former emergency medicine residency director and Professor of Emergency Medicine at the University of Minnesota. Annually, HealthPartners trains more than 470 residents, 2,000 clinical students and provides continuing education to more than 19,000 participants. Access his medical education leadership blogs at the International Clinician Educators ICE blog here. Michelle Noltimier, RN, BSN, MBA is the Director of Physician Assistant and Nurse Practitioner Graduate Education at HealthPartners. Previous experience includes 8 years as a leader in two different Level 1 trauma center emergency departments that have active health professional education programs. She has experience leading teams through change and transitions and achieving improvements in quality and operational efficiency.
