Conceptual Framework
The Institute for Healthcare Improvement (IHI) Framework for Improving Joy at Work helps to guide the wellness efforts at the School of Nursing, with specific adaptations to identify and address faculty, staff, and student needs considering:
- Physical and Psychological Safety;
- Meaning and Purpose;
- Choice and Autonomy;
- Recognition and Rewards;
- Participative Management;
- Camaraderie and Teamwork;
- Daily Improvement;
- Wellness and Resilience;
- Real-Time Measurement.
This aligns with The Future of Nursing 2020-2030: Charting a Path to Health Equity report from the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine, which focuses on nurses’ well-being and provides a structure to reach our wellness strategic goals
