WORKFORCE / FEATURE
Bringing back joy
At a time when burnout and resignations are at an
all-time high, children's hospitals are using a practical
framework to put the joy back into work.
By Megan McDonnell Busenbark
CARING FOR PEOPLE is not a job for Emma Sandhu-it's her calling. With
beginnings as a pediatric intensive care unit (PICU) nurse, Sandhu spent
years at the bedside pouring her heart into the care and cure of the children
who were sickest and in the most pain. Today, she focuses on a different
kind of care, albeit equally critical: the care of the caregivers. " Our people
are our most treasured assets. Without our people, we can't do anything
in a hospital, " says Sandhu, M.S.N., RN, CCRN-K, chief nursing officer, vice
president and hospital administrator at CHOC at Mission Hospital, part of
Children's Hospital of Orange County's (CHOC) pediatric health care system.
" But across our system, we were seeing our caregivers expressing this sense
of decreased joy and increased burnout. "
