Optimizing Clinical Orientation and Workforce Management with the TSAM® Model and Kahuna
The TSAM® Model offers a structured approach to clinical orientation, enabling preceptees to learn and master skill tiers alongside a preceptor in a clinical setting. This methodology immerses preceptees in a full patient load from the start and tailors the orientation to their individual learning needs.
Research indicates that the TSAM® Model enhances nurse confidence, role satisfaction, and retention, shortens the overall orientation period, and boosts the number of patient experiences for each preceptee. Kahuna is the sole skills management software designed for operations, learning, and human resources. It provides enterprise organizations with validated skills data to assess workforce capability, align talent supply and demand, and maximize the return on training investment.
“We know nurse leaders and educators are searching for ways to make their orientation and onboarding programs more efficient while increasing knowledge and skills retention,” said Jai Shah, CEO of Kahuna. “This collaboration aims to introduce a complete solution for organizations looking to digitize competency management with two industry-leading products.”
