Hospitals commonly use huddles to create staff alignment on a wide range of operational, clinical, and other topics and functions. However, not all huddles deliver the desired effect of lasting impact and full staff engagement. Experts agree that one fundamental requirement of creating a safety culture is having a preoccupation with safety built into every workday.
In this episode, Dr. Cowart shares her experience with building a culture of safety through deliberate, strategic, and persistent hard work. She has dedicated much of her career to improving safety culture at Mayo Clinic and other institutions. Dr. Cowart provides useful insights on and practical recommendations for implementing daily huddles that foster trusting relationships, build leadership skills, and engage team members in creating safety culture.
