GENERAL STATEMENT OF RESPONSIBILITIES

Specifically, Practice Facilitators use data and information to guide and support assigned health centers participating in 12‑month Communities of Practice (CoPs) and 3‑Year Outcomes‑Focused Cohorts focused on improving health outcomes for patients with chronic disease (e.g., hypertension, diabetes) and strengthen the provision of preventive and supportive services.

• Partner with health center staff across roles and levels of authority to assess health center context and capacity and engage differing perspectives in planning and decision‑making to ensure technical assistance is tailored for each health center’s unique context.
• Facilitate data‑informed process to identify gaps in client outcomes, causal factors, priority areas for improvement, and strategies to address causal factors to improve client health outcomes.
• Facilitate development of mutually agreed upon health center improvement plan including documented implementation support strategies (e.g., new workflows, strengthened community partnerships, team‑based care models, clinical consultation, protocol development, staff training) tailored to each health center's unique context.
• Support use of real‑time data to inform health centers’ continuous improvement activities.
• Provide data‑driven iterative implementation support through regularly scheduled virtual health center team huddles to support implementation of mutually agreed upon plan and to rapidly identify and address implementation challenges.
• Support health centers in testing and refining changes to care delivery through Plan‑Do‑Study‑Act (PDSA) cycles and other rapid‑cycle improvement methods.
• Maintain reliability and consistency in fulfilling technical assistance commitments to reinforce health centers' trust and confidence in the partnership.
• Document technical assistance activities, findings, and health center progress in QuickBase, CAI’s project management platform, and track a defined set of performance measures for each assigned health center.
• Collaborate with CAI CoP and Cohort Leads, subject matter experts, evaluators, and partner organizations to ensure technical assistance is current, evidence‑based, and responsive to health center needs.
• Identify and communicate emerging issues, barriers, and promising practices to program leadership to inform continuous improvement of NTAP's technical assistance approach.
