Staff R & R: rewards and recognitions that work.
Too often managers focus on imperfect aspects of staff performance and neglect to celebrate the triumphs of the unit and its employees. By taking time to recognize individual and group accomplishments, participating in hospital celebrations of success, and integrating rewards and recognitions into the daily culture of the NICU, managers can foster a more positive work environment.
