The National Academy of Medicine (NAM) Action Collaborative on Clinician Well-Being and Resilience is working urgently to develop a National Plan for health workforce well-being.
The National Plan will coordinate collective action across priority areas, including:
1) positive work and learning environments and culture
2) measurement, assessment, strategies, and research of well-being
3) mental health and stigma
4) compliance, regulatory, and policy barriers for health workers’ daily work
5) effective technology tools
6) effects of COVID-19 on the health workforce
7) recruitment of the next generation.
The National Plan will build on almost six years of collective work among 200 Clinician Well-Being Collaborative members and network organizations.
The draft plan will be released on May 20, 2022, for public input. We welcome you to join this webinar on the day of the draft plan’s release to kick off an open comment period when you can provide input to be taken into consideration for the final plan.
We value insights from all role types, institutions, and perspectives as we continue this important work. The National Plan will provide guidance and next steps to work with leaders of health care organizations and educational institutions for health professionals, policymakers, health IT companies, payers, regulators, associations, and others involved to cultivate a health system that supports our care providers and optimizes their well-being. With your input, we look forward to producing a National Plan for collective action to achieve health workforce well-being at this critical juncture for the U.S. health system.
