November 6, 2014 Swedish News

Swedish First Hill and Cherry Hill hospitals have joined the American Association of Critical-Care Nurses (AACCN) Clinical Scene Investigator (CSI) Academy, a national quality improvement program designed to empower bedside nurses as clinician leaders.

“Involving nursing staff in a transformational leadership program such as the AACN CSI Academy truly helps inspire staff to take their nursing practice to the next level,” said June Altaras, Swedish’s chief nursing officer, in AACN’s news release announcing the program’s rollout in the Seattle region. “The evidence-based program supports nurses in their efforts to create relevant and lasting solutions for the health and safety of their patients.”

First Hill and Cherry Hill are two of the seven hospitals to offer this program in the Seattle region. Read the AACCN news release to learn more.
