June 23 - 27, 2009
The highest quality patient care relies on teams of committed, skilled individuals who work together across many different disciplines.

The 27th Annual American Academy on Communication in Healthcare (AACH) National Faculty Development (ENRICH) Course will address four aspects of this system: promoting fundamental relationship-centered care, anticipating and managing unexpected medical outcomes, developing high-performance teams, and cultivating relationship-centered leadership.
This program is a joint venture between the American Academy on Communication in Healthcare (AACH) and Mayo Clinic. Visit the AACH web site at www.aachonline.org for additional details.
