This tool consists of 41 statements arranged in eight sections. Each section represents a key characteristic
associated with successful rural health networks. These include: Purpose; Government/Decision Making;
Planning; Financing; Leadership/Management; Staffing; Communication; and Evaluation. Network
leaders, board members, physicians, or other involved parties can use the tool to benchmark their current
position or use it as a starting point for a discussion around the present or future direction of their
network.

Turning Grant Data Into Meaningful Strategic Network Outcomes (pptx)
The objectives of this presentation are the following:
1.) Identify sources of existing grant outcome data and tie grant outcomes to network strategic plan goals;
2.) Translate grant outcome data into doable return on investment calculations relevant to the network’s local partners;
3.) Refine network outcome data presentations to meet the interests of various local audiences;
4.) Utilize network outcomes to build momentum and cohesiveness of the network.
