Kenneth Dale Brown, MSN, & Stephen M. Dorman, MD have presented education programs all over the country. Both consultants were on the faculty
of the Department of Education at the JCAHO which provide an opportunity to present information to a wide variety of audiences. Their extensive experience has enhanced their ability to provide interesting education programs that meet participant needs by discussing practical approaches to standards compliance.

Mr. Brown and Dr. Dorman have provided spoken at national conferences as well as for many state hospital associations including the Maryland Health Education Institute, the Tennessee, Missouri, Kentucky, West Virginia, and the Ohio Hospital Associations.

One available offering is an education program that is provided on site at the sponsoring hospital that is customized to meet the needs of your staff. We can design an activity that is composed of an education program about standards application and train your staff in using the tracer methodology. Practice using the tracer methodology is a key to having a successful survey outcome.

The following is an attached sample of an agenda at one of the programs recently presented by Kent & Associates.
