1. They can support protocols “that ensure that crucial information is conveyed to the right people at the right time.”
2. They can establish systems to ensure that equipment and supplies are readily available when needed.
3. They can “set expectations fora culture of high performance”from individuals and teams.
4. They can “require quality to be monitored against goals with incentives to push it toward those targets.”
