On November 6, 2023, the IRI executive team hosted Commissioner Kerri Neifield and Deputy Commissioner Megan O’Connor and their quality improvement and regional office leadership team at our headquarters.
For a half day, we had a substantive discussion about quality, how to identify it, how to achieve it, and how to measure it. We had a lively set of discussions led by Dr. Louis on some risk-laden and strategic matters.
This was followed by Dr. Corrigan, Chief Operating Officer; Lina Saray, Chief of Staff and Director of Human Resources; and Noelia Mango, Director of Clinical Services and Data Analytics, who presented evidence-informed practices across several managerial, clinical, technical, and tactical areas. The evidence-informed practices have been successfully implemented at IRI in mitigating risk and optimizing opportunities for people with intellectual and developmental disabilities to live their best lives.
