Avoid Adverse Events with ASCA’s March Webinar

Although rare in ASCs, an adverse event can impact patients’ and physicians’ perceptions of the care an ASC provides, negatively affect a center’s quality measure performance and drive up the cost of patient care. “Managing an Adverse Event,” ASCA’s March 6 webinar, will offer tips on how best to handle such an event. Michelle George, RN, CASC, vice president of clinical services at Surgical Care Affiliates, will discuss how to conduct a root cause analysis of an adverse event and how to develop a performance plan of action that prevents a comparable event in the future.
