Pre-requisites and Duties
Pre-requisites:
- Approval from your immediate Supervisor.
- An excellent working knowledge of your MEDITECH module, preferably the most recent version.
- Excellent communication skills.
Duties:
- Facilitate the Show & Tell sessions and JAM session at the conference.
- Poll your attendees for a volunteer peer group leader for the next conference.
- Update the MUSE website with current peer group leader information prior to the end of the conference.
- As the peer group leader, it is expected that you “lead by example” and give the first Show & Tell presentation. However, this may not be required if you recruit enough volunteers to provide Show & Tell presentations to fill the allotted time block. During the JAM Session, it is expected that you facilitate the discussion. It may be necessary to come prepared with a few topics in case you need to ‘jump start’ the discussions.
Definitions:
Representatives from different hospitals will be giving 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. They may attend the peer group meetings).
A JAM session provides dedicated networking time for the peer group participants. Peer group meetings strive to focus on networking, education, and solutions. (Note that Commercial members can be a valuable resource of information, expertise, and experience. They are welcome to participate).
