Stokes Podcast: High Reliability, Good Governance
In this Healthcare Executive podcast, Charles D. “Chuck” Stokes, FACHE, president and CEO of Memorial Hermann Health System, Houston, discusses high reliability and good governance in healthcare management. Stokes, whose leadership skills led his organization to win two Malcolm Baldrige National Quality Awards, shares the benefits of embracing Baldrige criteria in daily operations to run an engaged and fiscally sound healthcare facility.
Burnout Is More Than a Buzzword
The topic of burnout seems ubiquitous today, especially given the World Health Organization’s recent recognition of burnout in the new version of the International Classification of Diseases—ICD-11—as a “syndrome conceptualized as resulting from chronic workplace stress that has not been successfully managed.”
This critical issue is particularly prevalent in our field; approximately one in every three physicians is experiencing professional burnout at any given time.
Healthcare leaders seeking answers and solutions to this important topic can turn to ACHE for their educational needs. For instance, during the upcoming two-day seminar “Professional Burnout in Healthcare: Lead Your Organization to Wellness,” participants will learn how to recognize burnout and explore a simple and practical framework to improve overall staff wellness. This session, led by ACHE faculty Michael E. Frisina, PhD, CEO, The Frisina Group, and Harjot Singh, MD, healthcare burnout coach, TheHappyMD.com, is available at the New York Cluster, July 29–Aug. 1, where attendees can earn up to 27 ACHE Face-to-Face Education credits.
Can’t make it to New York this summer? This seminar will also be available at the San Diego Cluster, Nov. 4–7.
