New York, NY (PRWEB) April 17, 2007 -- Beth A. Brooks, PhD, RN, FACHE, and Senior Partner at JWT Employment Communications, will present Evidence-based Recruitment & Retention: Translating Research Into Practice at the South Carolina Healthcare Human Resource Association (SCHHRA) Annual Conference, held April 22 - 24th, at the Hilton Head Crowne Plaza Resort on Hilton Head Island, South Carolina. SCHHRA, a state chapter of the American Society for Healthcare Human Resources Administration (ASHHRA), is an association of almost 100 healthcare HR professionals from across South Carolina, representing over 35 hospitals and 20 nursing homes/extended care facilities.
“As organizations continue to implement clinical evidence in what is known as evidence-based practice, more human resource managers and recruiters are being challenged to use evidence in their practice,” according to Dr. Brooks. “This interactive presentation takes the mystery out of finding and using human resources and management research evidence to improve HR practice.”
Dr. Brooks has more than 20 years experience in health care, including positions in nurse recruitment and nurse management. She also has previous experience in employment communications, working with health care clients across the country on award-winning advertising, branding and marketing programs.
