SUMMARY:Root Cause Analysis and Action (RCAA) Learning Series\, Part 1: The Basic Components
DESCRIPTION:KHA MEMBERS: CLICK HERE TO REGISTER\n\nWhen a serious safety event or near miss occurs\, an effective Root Cause Analysis and Action (RCAA) process can be the difference between a missed opportunity and meaningful\, lasting improvement. Yet many health care leaders struggle to conduct RCAAs that move beyond compliance and drive real change. \n\nJoin the KHA Quality team for a four-part learning series designed to help hospital leaders build confidence and competence in every stage of the RCAA process. From understanding the fundamentals to developing impactful action plans and participating in a realistic tabletop exercise\, this series will equip attendees with practical tools they can immediately apply within their organizations. \nParts 1–3 will feature instructor-led education presented by KHA Associate Vice President of Quality and Health Professions Casey Franklin\, BSN\, RN\, CPHQ. Part 4 will be co-led by Casey Franklin and KHA Associate Vice President and Associate General Counsel Kristen Fowler\, and will provide participants with an immersive\, hands-on RCAA simulation. \nRoot Cause Analysis and Action (RCAA) Learning Series\, Part 1: The Basic Components\nThursday\, July 16   ||   1:00–2:00 p.m. ET \nBuild a strong foundation by learning the essential elements of an effective RCAA. Participants will walk through each step of the process — from event identification and investigation to action planning and follow-up — gaining a practical framework for conducting RCAAs that lead to meaningful improvement. \nRoot Cause Analysis and Action (RCAA) Learning Series\, Part 2: From Good to Better to Best\nThursday\, July 30   ||   1:00–2:00 p.m. ET \nDiscover what separates a routine RCAA from a truly impactful one. This session explores common pitfalls\, ineffective habits\, and proven strategies that help organizations uncover deeper system issues\, strengthen safety culture\, and maximize the value of every RCAA. \nRoot Cause Analysis and Action (RCAA) Learning Series\, Part 3: The Second “A”\nThursday\, August 13   ||   1:00–2:00 p.m. ET  \nA strong analysis is only valuable if it leads to effective action. Learn how to develop action plans that address root causes\, drive sustainable change\, and produce measurable improvements in patient safety and organizational performance.

SUMMARY:Kentucky Sepsis Consortium Webinar: How Technology Can Intersect with Improving the 3 Sepsis Metrics and Antimicrobial Stewardship
DESCRIPTION:KHA MEMBERS: CLICK HERE TO REGISTER\n\nNew rapid host response gene expression testing can address diagnostic uncertainty in suspected sepsis patients\, guiding clinical management after a sepsis alert. Implementing a higher accuracy test to differentiate sepsis from non-infectious systemic inflammation in the ED or post operatively can help to rule in or rule out sepsis and thus improve outcomes\, health care costs and antimicrobial stewardship. Additionally\, the alignment of host response testing with blood culture positivity enables clinicians to prioritize blood cultures for patients most likely to benefit\, reducing unnecessary testing\, contamination rates\, and laboratory costs. \nPresenter: Jane Louise Papadaki Markley\, VP Commercial Operations\, Immunexpress\nJane has 30 years of experience in the global clinical diagnostic marketplace\, holding leadership positions within large corporations such as Quest Diagnostics and also successful startups such as Asuragen. She has successfully pioneered new technologies for infectious diseases\, immunology\, oncology and genetic diseases\, overcoming market entry barriers and driving adoption through validation studies and educational campaigns. More recently with Immunexpress\, she has led the worldwide launch of SeptiCyte RAPID. \nLearning Objectives: \n\nIdentify the challenges associated with triaging suspected sepsis patients when there is diagnostic uncertainty\nUnderstand how rapid host response testing can guide clinical decision making and improve CMS bundle compliance\nInterpret host response test results for likelihood of blood culture positivity\nExplain the role of an accurate and rapid host response test to impact anti-microbial stewardship
