About

Susan Keane Baker MHA

I work with healthcare organizations that want to be known for exceptional patient care and with people who want happier patients.  I am the author of five books, the first being Managing Patient Expectations.  A former hospital vice president, I attained the designation of Fellow of the American College of Healthcare Executives and Fellow of the American Society for  Healthcare Risk Management.

From 2008-2011, I served as a member of the Board of Examiners for the Malcolm Baldrige National Quality Award.  I am a Commissioner on the Connecticut State Commission on Medicolegal Investigations. I teach at Quinnipiac University.

Favorite writing tool:  Scrivener

Best speaking tip:   One person, one thought. Maintain eye contact with one person until you finish a thought.  Repeat.

Motto:  If you’re going to do something anyway, you may as well be nice about it.
