Please join the Florida Hospital Association (FHA) and the CNO Leadership Council of the Florida Organization for Nurse Leaders (FONL) on Wednesday, August 23, 2023, at 12:00 noon ET for a program that will focus on the role of leadership and staff engagement on “Workplace Safety in Healthcare."

Staff depend on the support of capable leaders to provide a safe working environment, and patients rely on a qualified and competent healthcare staff that can deliver care with compassion in an environment that promotes safety for all. As we continue to address the healthcare workforce shortage, it is also important to recognize that a safe work environment is critical for attracting and retaining healthcare staff.

This program will include panel presentations from nursing and safety leaders around the state of Florida from AdventHealth, BayCare, Lee Health, and Madison County Memorial Hospital. These hospital leaders will share their perspectives on the challenges and strategies for maintaining a safe work environment and preventing workplace violence for their healthcare staff and patients.

Hospitals remain committed to responding to the state’s constant health care demands by staying focused on the safety, resilience and well-being of the healthcare staff, patients, and the communities we serve.

Objectives:
• Understand the challenges facing today’s healthcare environment for safety and prevention of workplace violence.
• Discuss and share leadership strategies critical for engaging front line staff in addressing safety in the workplace.
• Learn how hospitals are taking steps to ensure the safety of the healthcare workforce.
