As part of its risk assessment process, the compliance team at SSM Health gathers information from its data analysis and other sources and puts it into a risk brief. “We create a summary of the risk analysis in an Access database, using a custom form we created called a risk brief,” said Brigitte Doleshal, senior director of corporate responsibility at SSM, which includes 23 hospitals and other entities.[1] The risk brief describes the risk, factors that drive the risk, and current activities or leadership concerns related to the risk, she said. “Using this format, we can gather information from multiple sources and multiple regions for the same risk area all in one place.” Contact Doleshal at brigitte.doleshal@ssmhealth.com.
