The National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH) is the federal research institute focused on the study of worker safety and health and empowering employers and workers to create safe and healthy workplaces, and the Dr. Lorna Breen Heroes’ Foundation is the only nonprofit organization exclusively focused on healthcare worker mental health and well-being. NIOSH and the Dr. Lorna Breen Heroes’ Foundation recently released the Impact Wellbeing Guide, which provides hospital leadership with step-by-step guidance to make operational changes that improve healthcare worker wellbeing within their hospitals. In this podcast, we will discuss the Guide and its resources, as well as how hospital leaders can use it to build a system where pharmacists – and all healthcare workers – thrive.
