Volunteers do a lot to improve services for patients but in the past patient experience and volunteer teams have worked independently. This webinar will discuss the importance of building stronger relationships between patient experience and volunteer programs. The presenters will share an example of how one organization’s patient experience and volunteer teams work together and showcase how they document volunteer activities in their organization. Join this interactive discussion to learn strategies for ensuring volunteer efforts support patient experience initiatives, and how you can use metrics to support patient experience initiatives.
Non-members can purchase webinars at a cost of $49 each.
