Continuing the Conversation: How a BayCare Pilot Reduced Stress, Increased Job Satisfaction Among Nurses
BayCare Health System in Florida was one of four systems nationwide to pilot a wellbeing program to combat burnout and stress among nursing staff, in partnership with the American Nurses Foundation. The program employs a monitoring and communication program first developed for high-stress jobs, like first responders and military roles. Following the success of the pilot, the system announced this spring it would roll out the program at all 16 of its acute care hospitals.
On today’s episode of the Gist Healthcare podcast, host J. Carlisle Larsen is joined by Trish Shucoski, DNP, MSN, RN, NEA-BC, chief nurse executive at BayCare. And BayCare's advanced nursing educator, Rocky Hauch, DNP, RN, PCCN.
