Is Your Healthcare Organization ALL IN For Clinician Wellbeing?
The North Carolina Clinician and Physician Retention and Well-Being Consortium (NCCPRW) in partnership with the Dr. Lorna Breen Heroes’ Foundation launched the ALL IN: Caring for North Carolina’s Caregivers initiative. This initiative encourages hospitals and health systems across the state to redesign workplace environments to better support their staff’s wellbeing and mental health. Together, we have positively benefited 26,500+ physicians and other credentialed health workers working across 55 North Carolina hospitals by removing intrusive mental health questions and stigmatizing language from credentialing applications and peer reference forms.
We have now launched Phase 2: Learning the Wellbeing Systems Approach. Over 150 healthcare leaders representing 25 organizations are gaining the knowledge necessary to accelerate quality improvement projects that address the top driver of burnout – administrative burden. This Fall, we’ll begin implementing and evaluating projects to improve health workers’ experience and wellbeing while improving patient experience, improving population health, and reducing costs.
