    HRM Week Key Messages

    During HRM Week, please take the opportunity to deliver key messages to co-workers, friends, supervisors and others about the value of healthcare risk managers and our profession.

    Today's healthcare risk managers deliver Organizational Value.

    • We are a strategic investment and deliver expertise on risk prevention and people-centered event management.
    • Healthcare risk managers work to protect the patient, the balance sheet and the organization's reputation.

    We are strategic, practical, see the big picture and are the go-to professionals in a crisis.

    • We are fast movers and we operate at the intersection of clinical, risk financing, regulatory, and business issues - while having the communication skills to interact with a variety of people, under a variety of complex circumstances.

    Healthcare risk management is a proactive AND responsive profession that works to deliver safe and trusted healthcare.

    • Patient safety on the front and the back end is the key to managing enterprise risk and brings increased success in risk prevention.
    • Safe and trusted healthcare means saving lives, preventing errors and saving financial resources.

    The Certified Professional in Healthcare Risk Management (CPHRM) is a credential that can set you apart in the healthcare risk management profession. The CPHRM ensures that healthcare risk managers are the total professional in both healthcare and management.
