Kahuna Skills Management Software Enhances Clinical Competency Management for 14,000 Clinicians at Memorial Hermann Health System
2024年6月18日 - 11:08PM
Kahuna Workforce Solutions, the leading provider of skills and
competency management software, has announced the deployment of its
skills management platform for more than 14,000 nurses at Memorial
Hermann Health System, one of the largest not-for-profit health
systems in Texas.
Kahuna’s dynamic, digitized skills management platform will
relieve Memorial Hermann of its paper-based, manual competency
management processes. The software will allow Memorial Hermann to
standardize its evidence-based content across the multi-facility
system, consisting of 17 hospitals and more than 250 care delivery
sites. It will also streamline onboarding and orientation, reduce
risks of documentation inconsistencies, and enable transparency and
accessibility of competency data for frontline staff throughout the
health system.
“Kahuna will enhance our clinical competency experience and
fully aligns with our nursing strategy to optimize our processes,
prioritize innovation and safety, and excel as a top provider of
care and clinical advancement for clinicians,” said Bryan Sisk,
senior vice president and chief nursing executive for Memorial
Hermann.
Memorial Hermann’s strategic vision for its nursing program
transcends traditional competency management, with a broader goal
of reaching beyond the health system and into the Greater Houston
community.
“Memorial Hermann is committed to the Houston community and
helping to develop the next generation of nurses,” Sisk said. “The
Kahuna platform will help improve the transparency, autonomy and
efficiency of our competency management and development processes
for our nurses to better support them in their roles, while also
ensuring we provide high-quality care for our patients.”
“We are thrilled to work with Memorial Hermann as they enrich
all aspects of their clinical competency management practices with
Kahuna’s skills management software,” said Jai Shah, CEO of Kahuna
Workforce Solutions. “This collaboration unites two Houston-based
organizations and demonstrates a joint commitment to enhancing the
standard of health care through digitized competency management in
our Houston community and far beyond.”
