Utilizing Emotional Intelligence to Enhance Team Cohesiveness and Collaboration
Thursday, February 9, 2012
2:00 PM
Team cohesiveness and collaboration are core competencies for providing quality patient care. Too often, we assume our team’s communications and relationships are just fine, when in reality we’ve let our frustrations and interpersonal conflicts obstruct effective, patient/family-centered care. The field of Emotional Intelligence provides researched, workplace skills for integrating our essential “heart of hospice” values with today’s “mind of hospice” regulatory compliance and data-driven demands. By developing “emotional intelligence” and using “intelligent emotions,” hospice and palliative care professionals can shift intense, reactive conflicts into empathic, responsive problem-solving. This Webinar will also examine CMS’s regulations for coordinating patient/family care planning and NHPCO’s “Interdisciplinary Team Competencies Grid.”
