Whether it's protecting patient information, responding to cyber terrorism, planning for the next epidemic, or preparing for unexpected emergencies, business continuity is a must have for healthcare entities, and taking the brand new version of DRI’s healthcare continuity course, Healthcare Continuity (HCLE 2000) is the perfect place to start.
Instruction provided in this course enables you to build a continuity program based on the most up-to-the-minute information and the most utilized and time-tested standard in the field because the DRI International Professional Practices for Business Continuity Management are just that. Newly revamped and long the leading standard in our profession by a mile, the Professional Practices are the foundation upon which this four-day, in-depth, hands-on course is built. Along with the Professional Practices, you will learn business continuity best practices for the healthcare field, with a curriculum that reflects the NFPA 1600, Joint Commission, HIPAA, and other vital laws, regulations, and standards.
Instruction includes all ten Professional Practices detailed below, including new and expanded coverage of cloud computing, cyber threats, supply chain, risk transfer, insurance considerations, legal and regulatory requirements, and manufacturing processes, as well as more traditional topics such as evaluating risks, gaining leadership buy-in, crisis communications, and program audit. An experienced instructor using real world examples and interactive workshop exercises will walk you through the key elements of business continuity management for healthcare entities, making this the perfect course for those who are relatively new to the profession and want a thorough, leave no stone unturned educational experience.
The participatory nature of the course immerses you in the learning process, enables you to learn by doing, and ensures that you leave having outlined a firm foundation for your program that is specific to your entity. Additionally, the course as well as the revamped supporting material provided to every student is designed to give you all the tools you need to pass the Healthcare Examination and continue on the path toward becoming a DRI Certified Healthcare Provider Continuity Professional (CHPCP) or Associate Healthcare Provider Continuity Professional (AHPCP).
