The Wisconsin Quality Residency Program 2024-2025 kicked off at the Wisconsin Hospital Association in Fitchburg on May 8, featuring presentations from leaders Lori Haack, director of quality and patient safety, UW Health; Kati Wetzel, director of quality and risk management, Fort Healthcare; and Jenna Jennerjohn, quality director, Door County Medical Center. Participants were actively engaged, and the session fostered lively conversation along with interactive activities.
The program, tailored for new health care quality leaders with limited quality improvement experience, will run until March 2025. Future modules will cover regulatory requirements, risk management, data reporting and quality improvement methods. Sponsored by the Wisconsin Office of Rural Health, the program is a collaboration between WHA and the Rural Wisconsin Health Cooperative.
