Health Promoting Workplaces

From the site: "We care about your experience of your everyday working life in critical care. We know that sustaining the wellbeing of our staff means that we can provide a better service for our patients, and we make safer decisions and fewer mistakes. We know that this is not just about how you as an individual manage the stress of your job; it is about how your job is designed (including how valued you feel at work, your autonomy and sense of control), the way your unit is managed and your team is led, and the support from your peers. This wellbeing hub therefore examines wellbeing from all angles - individual, team, and system." Downloads, links to resources, and more.

BC Patient Safety and Quality Council offers this 13 week course: "How we work as a team and communicate with each other are essential elements of a healthy culture. Improving non-technical skills such as how we communicate, how we respond to the environment around us, and how we work together in a team are crucial for achieving high quality patient care."

Delivered via the Rural Coordination Centre of BC (RCCbc), this opportunity supports rural family physicians and nurses in their clinical practice through personalized and context-specific coaching.

From the site: "Reading has health benefits. Different studies report that it improves memory, enhances empathy, and reduces stress. Reading also is a fundamental way to acquire knowledge, so it stands to reason that reading different health topics can help people make informed decisions about their own health and the health of their loved ones and reduce the stigma surrounding some diseases and health conditions."
