This Week in CHCACTivities
Do you want more training in protecting health records? How about in social media skills, immigration laws or emergency preparedness?
Please complete this 30-45 minute survey on CHCACT Training/Technical Assistance (T/TA) activities by Friday, July 21st to help us improve our training and other offerings!
Your feedback will be used to ensure that the T/TA activities conducted by CHCACT are in compliance with the T/TA needs identified by Connecticut federally qualified health centers (FQHCs), as well as measure satisfaction levels of the programs offered. In addition, your feedback will be used to strengthen the clinical, financial and operational performance of your health center.
