Overview

Praxis Healthcare Services:
Praxis’ organizational development practice in Healthcare is based on the following principles:

• The quality of service delivered to patients, residents, and clients is directly related, not only to the organization’s technology and clinical knowledge, but also to the quality of the work environment experienced by its employees.  
• Patient satisfaction is most directly related to the quality of the relationship that is established between the patient and caregivers. 

Praxis has been providing consulting expertise to healthcare organizations for more than ten years. Our focus is on assisting organizations in providing high quality patient care by:

• working with organizational leaders to develop strategies, systems and competencies that are essential to achieving their organizational goals;
• developing an organizational culture that supports employees feeling valued, respected and having a voice; and,
• involving employees in developing effective and efficient processes that will both improve their work environment and enhance patient care.

Praxis has assisted Healthcare clients with:

1. Recruitment and retention programs
2. Improvement processes
3. Healthcare business literacy
4. Unit based shared governance councils
5. Flex scheduling 
6. Creating collaborative relationships in stressful environments
7. Management team development
