Investing in Innovation to Support Clinicians and Communities
Kahuna Workforce Solutions, the leading provider of skills and clinical competency management software, has announced that Texas-based Memorial Hermann Health System, a nonprofit health system committed to creating healthier communities in Greater Houston, has made a strategic investment in Kahuna.
This investment deepens the partnership between Kahuna and Memorial Hermann, empowering clinicians to more effectively address the diverse needs of patients both in the Greater Houston area and globally.
Kahuna Enables Competency Transparency and Accessibility
“It’s very gratifying when a visionary organization like Memorial Hermann puts their faith in your company in the form of a strategic investment,” said Jai Shah, CEO of Kahuna Workforce Solutions. “Our multifaceted relationship with Memorial Hermann is helping drive Kahuna forward to solidify our position as the leader in skills and competency management solutions for the frontline workforce.”
Kahuna’s digitized skills management platform helps leading healthcare institutions like Memorial Hermann move away from paper-based, manual clinical competency management processes. In doing so, Kahuna streamlines onboarding and orientation, reduces risks of documentation inconsistencies, and enables transparency and accessibility of clinical competency data for frontline staff.
Advancing Workforce Development for the Frontline
“Memorial Hermann has experienced firsthand the impact of Kahuna’s competency management platform, which has helped drive improvements in productivity, time efficiency and clinician engagement across our health system,” said Feby Abraham, executive vice president and chief strategy officer for Memorial Hermann. “By partnering with Kahuna, we are investing in a platform that drives continuous innovation in health care, while evolving our approaches to onboarding, orientation, training, and retention for our most critical frontline employees.”
This investment, coupled with Kahuna’s $21 million Series B funding round led by Resolve Growth Partners in November 2023, strengthens Kahuna’s mission to empower organizations in building resilient, future-ready workforces through operational skilling tools and initiatives designed for frontline workers.
