Health Care Today
Health care today is not what it was ten years ago. Today's market is ever changing, with managed care and health care reform, hospitals are in a mode of constant change. This can add extra stress to the already stressful job of patient care. The effects of these changes are felt at every level, from the housekeeping staff to the CEO, and most of all to the patient. Health care is complicated and very competitive. In order to stay on top you have to have an edge, something that will make people remember you and want to use you, as well as recommend your services to others.
I can offer you a way to help satisfy everyone and give you the something extra people want and come to expect. I can provide training for employees and management to help them reduce stress and increase productivity. Ways to make coming to work a pleasure instead of just a paycheck. I can also teach direct patient care staff how to use humor with their patients.
The key to a successful business, as you already know, is to have the ability to find and keep good personnel and to increase customer relations. I feel humor is one of the best ways to institute change with the least resistance. "Laughter for the Health of it" can provide the bridge to help ease the pain of change and growth.
As an employee of Horizon Mental Health Management, I had the pleasure of working hands-on with a variety of patients and unfortunately, of seeing the burnout of many staff who also work directly with patient care. I know how humor and a positive attitude help prevent this effect.
I could be a resource for utilizing Humor Therapy for staff as well as starting a Humor Therapy program for clients. I have experience creating Humor Rooms and Humor Carts if space is limited. I could conduct a one time workshop, or consult on a regular basis. I could also be used as a marketing tool and sent to referral sources to provide programs for their staff or clients. I am open to exploring other options as well.
As a certified Recreation Therapist, I can also help start and/or enhance an activity program for patients. I can train activity personnel on leading groups and on putting together a group schedule the clients will be excited to attend.
I feel I would be a welcome asset to the wonderful training already provided, as I have had several inquires as to my services. I hope to meet and talk to you soon!
