THROUGH THE EYES OF THE WORKFORCE: “Workplace safety is inextricably linked to patient safety. Unless caregivers are given the protection, respect, and support they need, they are more likely to make errors, fail to follow safe practices, and not work well in teams”
THROUGH THE EYES OF THE WORKFORCE: VULNERABLE WORKFORCE • 60% of surveyed physicians are thinking of leaving practice because they feel discouraged - 33% of new registered nurses seek another job within a year. CHALLENGES: • Lack of respect • Burdens of regulation and record keeping • Tolerance of disrespectful and non-team-promoting behaviors.
THROUGH THE EYES OF THE WORKFORCE: WORKPLACE VIOLENCE • “Health care has a long history of toleration of disrespectful behavior by physicians, and to some degree by nurses” • “Emotional abuse, bullying, and even threats of physical assault and learning by humiliation are all often accepted as “normal” conditions of the healthcare workplace”
AGENCY FOR HEALTHCARE RESEARCH AND QUALITY RESULTS (AHRQ) AHRQ 2011 User Comparative Database Report: Non-punitive Response to Error—This composite has the lowest average percent positive response (44 percent), indicating it is an area with potential for improvement for most hospitals.
THROUGH THE EYES OF THE WORKFORCE: What Can Be Done? 1. Am I treated with dignity and respect by everyone? 2. Do I have what I need so I can make a contribution that gives meaning to my life? 3. Am I recognized and thanked for what I do?
