In a continuing effort to improve women's health in an ever-changing health care environment, providers and staff of the Center participate in a broad-based, community-wide, multidisciplinary Clinical Care Working Group which has, among its goals, to:
- Address potential disparities in the delivery of evidence-based screening among patients through the evaluation of diverse screening tools;
- Decrease variability in care delivery and improve health outcomes;
- Develop training programs targeting risk assessment and counseling methods to ensure that all patients receive appropriate clinical services;
- Evaluate the quality and effectiveness of information delivered to patients in order to establish improved provider/patient communication and to enhance culturally competent strategies.
- Develop a comprehensive women's health-oriented clinical intake form to better assess the unique health care needs of diverse women across their lifetime;
- Utilize integrated information management systems to enhance continuity of care.
