NEW YORK, Nov. 17, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- Patient engagement leader CipherHealth announced today that Joy Avery, MSN, RN, SVP of Clinical Strategy at CipherHealth, and Stela Record, Director of Patient Experience at Banner Health, will deliver a joint keynote session on staff well-being at Next Generation Patient Experience (NGPX) conference on December 1, 2021.

Avery and Record will present the keynote session, "Enhancing Staff Well-Being: The Importance of Patient & Peer Feedback in Staff Wellness." The session will outline how to leverage staff recognition and promote purposeful staff rounding to support staff resilience efforts. Session attendees will:

Identify ways to integrate peer-to-peer recognition and leverage patient recognition to aid staff's ability to identify what is most important to patients
Discuss the value of feedback and staff recognition and how to innovate your patient experience strategy
Identify the importance of staff rounding and how to equip professionals with the tools and time needed to do so purposefully

With 524,000 healthcare workers having resigned in the past year, staff well-being and retention is a top priority for healthcare organizations. According to the 2021 NSI National Health Care Retention & RN Staffing Report, healthcare turnover costs the average hospital up to $6.5 million per year. Emphasis on mental health and prioritizing staff-wellbeing will be necessary in the coming years to provide better workplace environments that are beneficial to both healthcare professionals and their patients.
