Want to better understand and identify organizational drivers of chronic stress, exhaustion, and burnout among your workforce? Want to learn about promising practices to improve workforce health and wellness, increase resilience, and reduce and prevent burnout, and how to get started? 

In its recent report, Supporting the District’s Primary Care Workforce: Summary of Stakeholder-Identified Drivers, Promising Practices, and Recommendations for Promoting Wellness and Preventing Burnout, DC Health presents findings from more than 15 one-on-one listening sessions with an array of District healthcare stakeholders, including GW Resiliency and Well-being Center (R&WC) leaders, hosted by the DC Health Primary Care Office. 

To promote diffusion of promising practices highlighted in the report, DC Health is excited to announce an upcoming three-part webinar series focused on organizational approaches to improving workforce health and wellness. Each session will spotlight a different local healthcare organization doing important and innovative work to support the healthcare workforce, including an opportunity for questions and discussion with the presenters. 

Join the DC Health Primary Care Offices on Monday, September 23, 2024, at 4:30PM for the first in this three-part  lecture series, featuring Lorenzo Norris, MD, R&WC medical director and chief wellness officer for the GW medical enterprise, and Leigh Frame, PhD, MHS, R&WC associate director and research director, to learn more about:

  • identifying drivers of chronic stress, moral injury, and burnout within your organization through direct workforce engagement;
  • assessing your organization’s current landscape and establishing a centralized organizing structure for improving workforce health, wellness, and resilience;
  • supporting individual-, departmental-, and institutional-level purpose and resilience through a Whole Health framework;
  • and more!
