Nova Southeastern University issued the following announcement on Oct. 5.
Nova Southeastern University (NSU) is pleased to announce that François Sainfort, Ph.D., FACHE, professor and Chair, H. Wayne Huizenga College of Business and Entrepreneurship (HCBE) and professor in the Dr. Kiran C. Patel College of Allopathic Medicine (NSUMD) recently became a Fellow of the American College of Healthcare Executives (FACHE®), the nation’s leading professional society for healthcare leaders.
“At NSU we work every day to provide our students with an edge, that something special that differentiates us from others, and having highly qualified professors is key to that effort,” said Andrew Rosman, Ph.D., dean, NSU’s H. Wayne Huizenga College of Business and Entrepreneurship. “Having Dr. Sainfort as part of the NSU family is something we can all be proud of.”
Fellow status represents achievement of the highest standard of professional development in healthcare management. To obtain Fellow status, candidates must fulfill multiple requirements, including long-standing experience in healthcare management at the highest level, demonstrating impact on the field of healthcare management, meeting stringent academic and experiential criteria, maintaining continuing education hours, engaging in professional/community service, and passing a comprehensive examination. Fellows are committed to ongoing professional development, continuing community service, sustained impact on healthcare management, and undergo recertification every three years.
“The healthcare management field plays a vital role in providing high-quality care to the people in our communities, which makes having a standard of excellence promoted by a professional organization critically important,” says Deborah J. Bowen, FACHE, CAE, President and CEO of ACHE. “By becoming an ACHE Fellow and earning the distinction of board certification from ACHE, healthcare leaders demonstrate a commitment to excellence in serving their patients and the community.”
Dr. Sainfort is privileged to bear the FACHE® credential, which signifies board certification in healthcare management as an ACHE Fellow.
“Being awarded the FACHE® credential is an honor and, in part, a reflection of the quality of our graduate programs in HCBE and NSUMD,” said Sainfort. “One of my goals is to draw a path for our graduates to pursue the fellowship in their careers as well.”
