Lessons from Onboarding New Team Members to Minimize Fatal Errors

While “The Great Resignation” may be behind us, the demographics of our aging workforce guarantee that there will be a continuing stream of new clinicians and administrators filling roles in a range of healthcare settings – including ICUs.

As the Chronicle‘s investigation of deficits in John Muir Health’s PICU revealed, healthcare team members, at all levels, need on-boarding – as well as real-time refreshers on high-impact procedures. They also need to know the nitty-gritty details, like where to find specific items in a supply room and ways to streamline team communication in healthcare’s dynamic environment.

During our Opening Discussion, we’ll look to hear your Best Practices and Lessons Learned in Onboarding New Team Members – be they Board Members or clerks, sub-specialists or LVNs. And what approach do you use to test their competence using your technology – be it your EMR or other specialized devices or software?
