Inclusion, employee health, and wellness have long been priorities for Exabeam. Despite having a DEI Council, robust Employee Assistance Programs (EAPs), and mental health support, they realized they weren’t addressing a crucial issue affecting health and wellness: Caring for loved ones. One in five employees are balancing care responsibilities with their professional commitments, leading to significant strain. So, what does it mean to provide care today? Our CEO and Co-Founder, Julia Cohen Sebastien, recently discussed this during a fireside chat with leaders from Exabeam: "Caregiving isn’t just a label. It’s about being there for your family, friends, or even a neighbor who needs help." Understanding this, Exabeam turned to Grayce for support. Our platform goes beyond traditional EAPs, offering tailored programs that address the diverse needs of employees and their loved ones. This approach not only reduces stress but also enhances well-being and engagement at work. Check out a recap of our fireside chat with Exabeam to see how Grayce is making a difference for employees: https://lnkd.in/epMswrXt? #Grayce #Exabeam #CaseStudy

Looking back at March, I'm grateful for Brittany Spanos, M.L.E.R and her insightful Implicit Bias program! This training took a deep dive into understanding unconscious and conscious biases, shedding light on their impact on decision-making and workplace dynamics within healthcare. Implicit bias training is crucial for fostering inclusive environments and promoting health equity. #ImplicitBias #DiversityAndInclusion #HealthcareEquity

Well, it’s coming up to 6mths since I joined Liz here at Chris Barnard Health, and just as I thought, combining our skills, experience and relationship knowledge has led to an enormous number of re-connections, nurturing existing relationships, and commencing new ones. It's been fantastic! We both knew this would be the case – that’s why we came together, but what is great to have reconfirmed, is the power of connection, transparency, and trust in the business environment. When you’ve got these things on your side, then the business flows, conversations are easy, and issues or miscommunications are dealt with immediately with respect and honesty. It’s a breath of fresh air to work with the aged and community care clients, and more recently with our colleagues in the hospitals as well, with this foundation. Our conversations are open and honest, and we are well practiced at listening to their pain. Don’t get me wrong – it doesn’t mean that finding staffing solutions is a walk in the park, or a quick fix – quite the opposite, but I’d fear to think what it would be like if we didn’t have these solid foundations. So, to all our clients, and our candidates – across all of health, if you haven’t reached out to say ‘Hi’ or ask, ‘can you help me find……’? then please do. Call into 207 Davey St Hobart if you are passing also. Don’t spend your precious time (and $$) working in our core business. Let’s us help you, we are unique, Liz and I combined have more than 50yrs experience in the health sector. To all the aged care employees every day and especially this Wednesday for ‘Aged Care Employee Day’ we say......... “Thank you” for all that you do for our elderly. #chrisbarnardhealth #agedcare #relationships #trust #transparency #acutesector

The recent 'Collective Care' webinar facilitated by the brilliant Catherine Twiss and organised by our Professional Development Interest Group (chaired by Marion Slawson) was attended by over 90 participants. Thank you to those who attended. Catherine's insights and expertise added immense value to our understanding of the topic. When developing collective care programs in the workplace, it is essential to consider the benefits of sharing experiences, reducing feelings of isolation, and increasing resilience. However, over-relying on others could hinder personal growth. Therefore, it is essential to be alert and aware of the distribution of responsibilities. During the webinar, a thought-provoking question came up, 'How does our work affect us as human beings?'. The question (and the responses we received) shed light on the impact our professional lives have on our well-being. We would love to hear your thoughts and any key takeaways you had. Feel free to share in the comments! #professionaldevelopment #collectivecare

❤️🩹 Finding joy at work ❤️🩹 At the Schwartz Rounds today in Bathurst Hospital, I co-facilitated the rounds and the sharing from staff was so uplifting ❤️ It is a really special space where staff from any department are welcome to come and attend and contribute if they wish. There is a sense of #emotionalsafety in the room. The Schwartz Center for Compassionate Healthcare Schwartz Rounds are evidence based forums to support social and emotional wellbeing for staff. Today marks the 4th round at Bathurst in the pilot we are doing. The stories of finding joy were varied, relatable and engaging. I was thinking on the drive home how some of these are #antiburnout factors. The 6 workplace factors that increase vulnerability to burnout are (per Maslach et al): 😩 Unmanageable workload….job strain. 🙌 lack of community. The sense of community in the room today was 💪 😩 Lack of autonomy. Controllables vs Uncontrollables 😕 Misalignment of values. In the workplace or between you and the workplace. 😤 Lack of fairness - that’s decided by you. 🙌 Lack of recognition. How do you go accepting praise? It’s something I have had to work on in my #burnoutrecovery journey. #burnoutprevention #findingthejoy #compassionforclinicians #schwartzrounds
