North Dakota CAH Quality Network

Executive Committee

The executive committee was formed in April 2007 on a voluntary basis. Members, representing administration, quality improvement and nurse management are from nine different ND CAH’s and represent North Dakota’s geographic regions. These members have agreed to serve either 1, 2, or 3 year terms. The purpose of the executive committee is to oversee the ND CAH Quality Network’s activities. Monthly calls are held with one in–person meeting per year.

A combined executive and advisory committee list is also available in a printable format.
