Research indicates that organizations that focus on resiliency as a key indicator of success have physically and emotionally healthier teams, foster innovation in practice, have greater retention, and become a highly sought out employer for the next generation of team members. Join us to learn how you can identify, apply, and measure the impact of integrating resiliency for yourself and your team.
Working in rural health care is challenging. We can experience the extreme highs and lows of life throughout a single shift. We jump from task to task without pause and keep going relentlessly until the job is done – then start over the next day. This physical and emotional fatigue is often enhanced when there is a misalignment between personal and professional values; resulting in low satisfaction, burnout, and then, turnover. During this session, we will have focused, productive conversations in small groups that identify the early warning signs and root causes of a distressed individual or team and classify the common causes of burnout so you can mitigate these symptoms before quality becomes compromised, the rest of the team gets “infected” with negativity, and people start quitting.
