The Next Generation of Healthcare Workers

The Next Generation of Healthcare Workers

Description

The healthcare workforce is rapidly changing. Recent years have seen millions leave their healthcare jobs, with many citing burn-out. As the need to rebuild the healthcare workforce grows, what can employers do to attract the next generation of talent? And more than that, how can they develop strategies to ensure a workforce as rich in diversity as the patients they serve?

Lowering the Rate: The Next Steps in Maternal Healthcare

Lowering the Rate: The Next Steps in Maternal Healthcare

Description

With the national maternal mortality rate steadily increasing over the past few years, the United States now has one of the worst rates among other industrialized countries. Factors such as the increased cost of healthcare, a limited number of specialized medical caregivers, and societal biases have placed those who are pregnant at great risk. This session will look into the potential ways out of this crisis, and into a new era of American maternal healthcare.

In Crisis: The Opioid Epidemic

In Crisis: The Opioid Epidemic

Description

Nearly five years since the Department of Health and Human Services first declared a public health emergency to combat the longstanding opioid epidemic, the crisis rages. The combination of the pandemic response, stress and burnout of the public health workforce and a national mental health crisis are contributing to the record setting number of drug overdose deaths. In this session, we examine promising initiatives, like harm reduction and improved data systems, dedicated to reducing the opioid epidemic in cities and states across the country.
