In case you missed it — and, because we really value the achievements of these teams — we’re reprinting the below article from UMass Memorial’s Hub. Unit Based Teams (or UBTs) are at the core of SHARE’s mission. UBTs are designed to put SHARE members directly in the driver’s seat, designing their own work in the ways that make the most sense. Developing a high-level UBT makes it easier to deliver care to be proud of.
The SHARE UMass Memorial Partnership Office comprises a crack team of Continuous Improvement Coaches, as well as a Program Coordinator. They facilitate UBT meetings, measure the progress, and help find the tools and strategies to get things done. At least, that’s the Coaches’ initial role with each Team. As the Teams develop and mature, they’re more self-reliant . . . and, hopefully, more easily able to find happiness and satisfaction in their work.
