We need your help In May we held a workshop organised by staff for staff to discuss staff engagement and culture. Now we are launching a major project to ‘Create our culture’, acting on staff’s four priorities; implementing the CARE values, improving our communication and performance appraisals, and addressing inappropriate and bullying behaviour. Evidence shows when healthcare staff are more engaged in their work, teamwork improves, patients have a better experience and care is safer, of higher quality and more productive. Everyone can get involved now, to ‘Create our culture’ Secure your place at the transformational ‘in their shoes’ listening sessions during ‘Creating our culture’ week, from 28th November. Events to listen to patients, staff and leaders talk about their experience here, their ambitions for our care, and your ideas for improvement Share your views in the ‘Creating our culture’ survey Patients, their families, whānau and staff – find out more and register to attend these important events, on OnePlace, our website www.bopdhb.govt.nz or call 0800 364 243 or email [email protected] BOP Health Services Plan Good to Great – Maori Health Quality Review Staff Engagement & Culture
