Show & Tell

Representatives from different hospitals can give brief presentations that demonstrate their achievements and innovative solutions. Show & Tell sessions are designed to be short, informative sessions in the peer group meetings where “users teach users.” (Note that Commercial members may not offer Show & Tell presentations.)

Each Show & Tell session is specific to a particular module and should be about 15 to 20 minutes in duration. It can be as simple as a quick online demonstration, a handout of a unique report, a straightforward PowerPoint show, or just a speech that explains a helpful tip or trick. A Show & Tell presentation can be interactive with the audience and it should generate good discussion.
