EDUCATION AND RESEARCH- Case

 

According to The Institute for Health Care Improvement (2006), Continuing Education (CE) is a vehicle for spreading best practices and how to improve patient outcomes. In short, continuing education assists with keeping health care teams well-informed of current research, laws, regulations, and practices in the fields in which they practice.
