The New Now - Reimagining a Healthcare System that Prioritizes Healthy and Happy Healthcare Workers

Episode Notes

HealthIMPACT Live Presents: The New Now - Reimagining a Healthcare System that Prioritizes Healthy and Happy Healthcare Workers 

Healthcare is feeling the impact of the Great Resignation. A recent report from Mayo Clinic reports that approximately 1 in 3 physicians, APPs, and nurses surveyed intend to reduce work hours and one in 5 physicians and 2 in 5 nurses intend to leave their practice altogether. The need to reduce burnout and improve a sense of feeling valued is needed now more than ever for health care organizations to maintain their workforce post-pandemic. Leaders will discuss the need to change attitudes and culture and what a system that supports clinicians looks like. 

• What does a healthcare system that supports health workers’ well-being look like? 
• What role do gross health inequities, workplace discrimination, and lack of diversity in leadership play in job satisfaction? 
•  How can organizations increase access to high-quality, confidential mental health and substance use care for all health workers? 
• How can health systems improve clinician job satisfaction? 
• What programs and tools support flexibility and better work-life balance and mitigate burnout and feelings of loneliness and isolation? 
• How do you protect your clinical workforce from the impacts of the politicization of science and public health?
