SUMMARY:Leveraging System Strengths to Solve Capacity Gaps in Limited-Resource Environments Session 3
DESCRIPTION:This four-part Community of Learning (CoL) series\, Leveraging System Strengths to Solve Capacity Gaps in Limited-Resource Environments\, examines how leadership\, networks\, flexibility\, and collaboration can equip AIM participating facilities operating in limited-resource environments to implement AIM patient safety bundles (PSB).

Each session features insights from AIM entities and participating hospitals\, offering real-world strategies to strengthen systems for sustainable change: \n\nSession 1: From Solo Champion to System Catalyst: Leading Change in Limited-Resource Perinatal Care Setting | Thursday\, May 21\, 2026\, at 2:00 PM CT\nSession 2: Meeting Facilities Where They Are: Considerations for Customizing PSB Implementation | Thursday\, July 23\, 2026\, at 2:00 PM CT\nSession 3: The Power of Connection: Scaling Maternal Care Through Partnerships | Thursday\, September 10\, 2026\, at 2:00 PM CT\nSession 4: Strategies for data utilization in low-volume settings | Thursday\, October 15\, 2026\, at 2:00 PM CT
