Successful healthcare organizations work to achieve strategic goals and advanced clinical practice. Clinical ladders can contribute to that achievement if they are aligned with the professional, individual goals of their clinical staff. Let these two clinical RDs guide you through the process of establishing a clinical ladder program at your institution and helping you achieve more as an individual practitioner using a clinical ladder, whether it be department or multidiscipline-focused. This webinar will benefit both staff and management in their roles within a healthcare institution.
