Home Based Projects

Welcome to the combined HLI and DMW-NLI Project Database! This database contains a listing of all of the projects that DMW-NLI and HLI participants have undertaken as part of their institute programs.

Organization of the Database
The database is organized into four main sections: Care Delivery, Healthy Workplace, Business of Healthcare, and Personal/Professional/Team Development. Each section contains clusters of projects grouped under sub-headings for convenience of reference.

Searching the Database
In Adobe Reader click ‘View’ / ‘Zoom’ to zoom in or out on the database. Use ‘Edit’ / ‘Search’ to search by keyword(s) for an area of interest to you. For example, if you were interested in improving patient flow in the Emergency Department, you might search under “Emergency” and “Patient Flow”. Or, if you were interested in improving morale and strengthening teamwork in your work unit, you could search using ‘morale’, ‘satisfaction’ and ‘team’.

When you identify a project of interest to you, you can contact the “Project Owners” through the organization phone number listed. A word of caution: some of the individuals may no longer be working on the unit or for the organization listed; but hopefully you will locate someone who remembers the project, and can provide you some information.
