Evidence-based staffing and "communityship" as the key to success.
Embracing an inclusive leadership style is the foundation of building an approach to staffing that maximizes outcomes for patients, the workforce, and the organizations in which care is delivered. By engaging everyone involved and inviting participation, a structure of shared understanding is created, providing an environment that is positioned to achieve optimal results. Communityship offers a model for approaching leadership that is aligned with leveraging talent across an organization and developing a culture prepared to face the complex challenges of staffing and achieving new levels of performance that an evidence-based approach to staffing excellence can offer. A zero-defect health care system can be achieved by developing communityship.
