1) providing clinical information in a clear and timely manner;
2) requesting information and resources needed to provide care consistent with Denver Health goals; and
3) providing and accepting feedback in a respectful manner from all staff.
1) providing leadership to improve outcomes quality and service quality;
2) working to ensure personal, departmental, and organization compliance with all legal and educational requirements; and
