October 7, 2019 – Your safety matters! Earlier this year Houston Methodist received a $90,000 system grant for workplace violence prevention from the Texas Department of Health and Human Services.
Part of the grant funding enabled the System Workplace Environment and System Security Councils to create a video providing employees education about workplace violence prevention.
I invite you to click this link to view the video and then use below discussion questions during your staff meetings to begin the conversation about workplace safety.
It takes all of us to have a safe work environment and Houston Methodist is committed to your safety!
- What reasons do you believe are the most common in your department/unit for underreporting workplace violence?
- What type of workplace violence does your team experience most often?
- What steps can your team take to improve the safety of our team, patients, and guests?
- What resources do you have as an employee if you witness or experience workplace violence?
