Robin Jones moved to Florida at the tail end of 2017 to pursue a burgeoning career in CDI. And ever since has done nothing but climb the professional ladder.

Leaving behind her home in Cincinatti Ohio and a decorated career in CDI at Mercy Health, Robin started over as Division Director of CDI at AdventHealth West Florida in November 2017. A few years later she was promoted to Director of Clinical Excellence. You might recall that she joined me for an episode of Off the Record in November 2022 to talk about this change.

Three months ago she was promoted again, this time to Vice President of Clinical Excellence & Education. And I knew it was time for a return visit. We get into her flourishing career and the broader CDI program at AdventHealth West Florida on today’s Off the Record.

On this show we cover:

  • Promotion to VP of Clinical Excellence and Education and what it entails
  • New VP level leadership responsibilities, and what new skills Robin had to cultivate to meet them
  • What she had to give up to accept this new role, and the challenges of delegation
  • Commitment to hybrid onsite/remote CDI and a unit-based model of coverage
  • Winning a Leapfrog Emerald Award, AdventHealth’s emphasis on public report cards and how CDI can make an impact
  • Retaining and building the workforce of tomorrow
