How do we support health and care staff who are burned out, exhausted and thinking of leaving their profession?Christina Krause, CEO of the BC Patient Safety & Quality Council previews her workshop with Helen Bevan from NHS Horizons, which takes place on Wednesday 22nd June 2022: Rest and recovery post-covid: a necessary step for quality.Covid-19 placed unprecedented stress on healthcare systems across the globe. The pandemic took us through the fear of the unknown, overwhelmed health systems, delays and cancellations of ‘regular’ care. We have big challenges managing the tension between the recovery of our people and the recovery of healthcare services. This interactive session will explore organizational energy and practical strategies on recovery from significant events such as a pandemic. We will explore how we might re-design the way we work so that when we face another crisis, we are prepared to support the wellness of our teams and health of our system. After this session, participants will be able to: -Articulate the need for post-pandemic rest and recovery to ensure the sustainability of our people and the healthcare system -Identify the multiple aspects of organizational energy and implement strategies for addressing in the context of post-pandemic recovery -Explore how quality improvement can play a pivotal role in people recovery and service recovery.Christina Krause is the Chief Executive Officer of the BC Patient Safety & Quality Council and an Adjunct Professor, School of Population & Public Health, Faculty of Medicine at the University of British Columbia. Her interests include the use of social change models and network theory in efforts to engage and mobilize stakeholders, as well as the role of culture, teamwork and communication to advance quality of care.
