Stronger Boards. Smarter Strategy. Better Healthcare.
Specialized Board Training & Governance Support for Healthcare Leaders
We provide customized, experiential board education that strengthens governance, enhances financial oversight, and ensures strategic alignment between boards and leadership.
Our programs cover fiduciary duties, financial literacy, compliance, and strategic leadership development for healthcare boards.
Focused Board Education & Governance Training for Healthcare Organizations
Unlike firms offering board training as a secondary service, PSL is fully dedicated to developing strong, strategic, informed healthcare boards through Board Orientation & Role Clarification to establish clear expectations for new and returning board members.
We specialize in governance education for:
-
Rural Healthcare - Critical Access Hospitals, Community Health Centers, and Government Hospitals
-
Hospitals - Nonprofit, Private, Academic Medical Centers, and Public Health Systems
-
Physician Groups - Governing boards overseeing medical practices and multi-specialty groups
Bridging the Knowledge Gap for Board Members
Many board members are appointed or elected without a deep understanding of healthcare governance, finance, or operations. PSL provides targeted education in:
-
Strategic Governance & Leadership Alignment – Understanding the board’s role in long-term hospital success and CEO collaboration.
-
Compliance & Quality Management – Navigating Medicare, Medicaid, regulatory frameworks, and risk management.
-
Financial Statements & Revenue Cycles – How healthcare funding, reimbursements, and economic sustainability work.
-
People & Culture – Boards must understand that their role begins and ends with human resources, credentialing, compliance, and leadership oversight.
Unlike traditional training programs, which take a one-size-fits-all approach, PSL tailors education strategies to meet each organization's unique governance structures and challenges. We also provide tools for board performance assessment and ongoing leadership development planning.
Strengthening Board & Executive Collaboration
Strong governance requires alignment between boards and hospital leadership. PSL goes beyond training by helping boards and CEOs:
-
Develop a shared strategic vision to align hospital operations and financial sustainability.
-
Enhance communication and decision-making to improve board effectiveness.
-
Create governance structures that support accountability, strategic growth, and patient-centered outcomes.
Our training supports effective communication between board members and executive teams, helping define boundaries and strengthen decision-making authority.
Our approach bridges the gap between oversight and execution, ensuring that governance leads to actionable, measurable impact.
