Creating a Culture of Empowerment: Leveraging Best Practices from Robotic Surgery Service Lines
Sponsored by Intuitive
As hospitals, ASCs, and health systems continue driving towards their pursuit of the Quadruple Aim, care team burnout and turnover have become the front-and-center issue for every healthcare leader. Creating a culture of empowerment throughout perioperative staff is of the utmost importance for recruitment and retention – but building that culture can be tricky.
Panelists from across the country talk about their own experiences and best practices for how they built a positive culture within their robotics service lines. Their insights around training, using data for change management, and standardizing care that reduces burdens are ones you can use to scale throughout your own facility.

The ‘Why’ & ‘How’ to Recruit Differently
Healthcare leaders are uniquely positioned to advocate for underserved populations in their communities who lack access to proper nutrition, preventive care and essential services that cause comorbidities and worse health outcomes such as sudden cardiac, maternal-fetal, or COVID-19 deaths. Of the many solutions, there’s one you can control with high returns: Hiring a more diverse team.

Lions and Tigers and Bears, Oh My!
With COVID-19 as an underlying condition – and potentially surging – what happens when a natural disaster or mass casualty strikes?
You’re already stretched thin and now must potentially be ready for even more (fires, floods, hurricanes, civil unrest, mass shootings, flu season). Hear from veterans of large emergencies about how their past medical responses would be different today.
