Consulting Services
Through two firms - Clinical Advisory Team and Competency Exchange - Tammy partners directly with healthcare organizations on the challenges that matter most at the point of care: clinical excellence, workforce development, patient safety, and organizational transformation. Every engagement is informed by her own experience running hospitals and leading nursing practice, not just advising from the outside.
