Supporting and Connecting with Our Workforce

At Cincinnati Children’s, our vision is to be the leader in improving child health, and we strive to deliver best-in-class care every day. We cannot do this without supporting and connecting with each other—working together to create a caring work environment for all members of our workforce. 

All of this work is grounded in—and connected with—the Quality Excellence work within Cincinnati Children's as well as the U.S. Surgeon General’s domains of workplace wellness, which include safety, connected community, work-life balance, mattering at work, and growth and accomplishment.

We must create a system that allows for meaningful connections between our colleagues, enables them to heal from the stress inherent to healthcare work, and supports them to find hope and optimism for the future—all of this leading to a feeling of thriving.

What does it mean to thrive? Hear what a few of our teammates had to say.

Mayo Well-being Index

This tool was invented and validated by Mayo Clinic and helps measure an individual's well-being so we can start to understand how our workforce is feeling—and then develop plans to address concerns.
