Clinical outcomes manager believes job ‘a calling’
Published 6:33pm Tuesday, December 20, 2011Having 13 years of extensive experience is no easy task.
Shala Harger, the upcoming clinical outcomes manager at Madison Hospital said her experience has been more of a calling.
Harger has a broad-based background in performing administrative functions and providing evidence-based patient care.
“I will coordinate the areas of practice excellence/ education, quality management, infection control, case management, house supervisors and IT,” said Harger.
Harger said there was no specific reason or event in her life that led her to nursing. “I truly believe for me, nursing was a calling,” said Harger.
Originally from Fyffe, Harger has lived near Memphis, Tenn. where she received her master’s in nursing from the University of Memphis.
Harger has recently moved back home, and although she is new to the system, she has been rotating through the different areas and is learning about the hospital.
Although taking on a new responsibility in healthcare, Harger said she is constantly considering patients’ healthcare needs, personal concerns and safety. Harger said she possesses excellent planning, prioritizing and goal-setting abilities.
“I am looking forward to working effectively with an interdisciplinary team and providing a fostering positive environment for our patients,” said Harger.
