To begin this discussion, introduce yourself to your classmates and instructor. Briefly discuss your background, describe your professional goals, explain what you hope to gain from this course, and share what you enjoy doing in your free time. Then, continue to the discussion topic.
Review the required readings for this module. Select a healthcare organization or facility and identify a healthcare service the organization or facility offers. It may be interesting to check out resources in your local area.
Discuss which elements of the CLAS the healthcare service meets. For those standards that the service does not meet, how could the service be improved or changed to meet the additional standards?
When responding to your classmates, evaluate your classmates’ recommendations and suggest additional ways in which the chosen service could be improved to meet the CLAS standards.
