Role competent individuals are at the core of high performing organizations. The programs developed by Maria W. O’Rourke at Role-Based Practice Solutions offers a systematic and evidence-based methodology that equips individuals, teams and organizations to realize the benefits of a role competent workforce.

“Working with Maria O’Rourke has energized our leadership group and increased the professional role competence, confidence, decision-making, critical thinking skills and patient advocacy of our staff. We’ve incorporated this work into the infrastructure of our organization, and it’s serving as a foundation for our Journey to Magnet.”
