In this era of health reform and major changes in the health care delivery system, health care organizations are being challenged as never before. Boards must be prepared to meet these challenges and to continue serving the needs of their communities. Self assessment is a way for boards to ask themselves how well they are prepared to confront these obstacles.
The Kentucky Hospital Association’s Board Self-Assessment tool can help a board identify where its strengths lie as well as where improvement may be needed. Self-assessment is an important function that should be an ongoing part of serving on any hospital or system board.
