Burnout and stress are prevalent among healthcare providers, including nursing staff. Burnout among nurses can lead to decreased productivity, increased errors, and higher rates of absenteeism. It can also be costly for hospitals and healthcare systems to replace nurses who decide to leave due to stress.
One system experimenting with novel ways to support its nursing staff is BayCare Health System in Tampa, Florida. It was one of four systems in the country chosen by the American Nurses Foundation to pilot a nurse wellbeing program that borrowed a stress program originally developed for high-stress roles, like those in the military.
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.
