Where Are We Now?

Currently the Health Initiatives hosted at CSI focus on three specific area of health care.

EMS Talent Pipeline: is wrapping up with phase 1 of the process, as we have identified key areas of opportunity. Next month we will begin to prioritize that list and transition into Phase 2 where we work toward alignment in how we identify and define those opportunities.

The Long-Term Care/Skilled Nursing Talent Pipeline: is preparing to do a re-start at phase 1 of the process, as we work to re-assess industry needs and work to prioritize the next initiative. Next month the collaborative will re-convene to continue with our efforts as we move on to the next pipeline development project, while continuing to expand on the previous pathway program and adding the C-MAT program as part of the ongoing C.N.A. employee training and development project.

Acute Care Pipeline: is in Phase 1 as we work on initial discovery and participation recruiting status. Presentations were made last fall to area hospital facilities to gauge interest. As a result of those presentations enough interest was expressed to move forward with this initiative.
