Fish out of Water The Role of the Non-Clinician in a Clinician’s World Bobby Alexander Mike Heenan Leadership Convention 2009
Workshop Overview • Martin’s Email • Definitions • Acronym Bingo • Lego Play • Strategic Clinical Goals • Where do we fit in? • Concluding Thoughts
Martin’s Email • Hi • I think I understand the intention of this presentation (because I know you both)....but (and I may be a bit sensitive here) - it seems as though this presentation makes an assumption/ implies that "we" (the clinicians) don't value the work of the non-clinical members of the team......for those who don't know you - I am a bit concerned that this may make people uncomfortable (maybe I'm overthinking it).........your delivery will be really critical in pulling this off without eliciting this response.............feedback - with apologies - take it or ignore it....I totally trust your intent • Cheers • M
What this workshop is not… • a dumping ground on clinical practice • an “us” vs. “them” session
What this workshop is… • a response to the post-convention survey last year • a recognition that finance, environmental services, facility management, quality, health information, nutrition service, security, are components of quality care. • a humorous workshop to recognize & discuss the role all of us play in delivering care to our community

Envelope: Strategic Clinical Goals of Patient Safety & Patient AccessRead the issue, build a model on how you can help improve clinical practice in this area. • What did you build? • How does it help? • What will you do tomorrow to help advance it?
LEGO & Bingo – What’s the link? • We all think differently • We all talk differently • But…we all have the same goal
Concluding Thoughts • We are not Non-Clinicians • But we live, work & serve in a clinical world – WE SERVE THOSE WHO SERVE • Most importantly, we may be people without a clinical background but we are members of the SJHH CARE Team
