Description:

Are you an expert in assessing and managing risk in health care facilities? ASHE needs your help! We are looking for volunteers to serve as subject matter experts (SMEs) for our upcoming HCFM Handbook & Education Series installment on Managing Risk. 

This handbook will teach facilities managers about the risk life cycle and offer best practices for identifying, analyzing and taking steps to mitigate risks related to the health care physical environment — including risks to business continuity, emergency preparedness and management, asset management, and health facility design and construction.  

SME volunteers must meet the following qualifications to participate: 

  • 5+ years experience overseeing the assessment and mitigation of risk in the health care physical environment, including natural, technological, human and cyber risk; asset management; construction risks; and accounting for risk in health care facility design. 

  • 3+ years applying risk-based methodologies to satisfy performance-based regulatory requirements in one or more areas of health care facilities management. 

  • Proven success developing risk management plans (either independently or in collaboration with an enterprise risk management team) and building a positive culture around risk in a health care facility.  

SMEs will be selected in late June and interviewed by the book’s author starting in July 2025. Total time commitment for the project is 4-5 hours stretched over several months. 

Interested in helping your fellow health care facilities managers grow their risk management skills? Please email lhegedus@aha.org by EOD June 13, 2025for more information.
