Program Overview:
The safety and health of our healthcare workforce continues to evolve, presenting our members with both challenges and opportunities. At the Workers’ Compensation and Safety Forum, we will cover a variety of healthcare-specific worker safety topics and reconnect you with your peers. We will cover topics like the importance of selling safety to senior leadership, updates on the Antum Risk/SCHA workplace violence initiative, and member best practices for patient handling, workplace violence, and ergonomic injury prevention.
Learning Objectives:
- List two ways you can make the case for safety to senior leadership.
- Describe the current status of the SCHA/Antum WPV collaborative.
- Explain two best practices completed by other members that can be applied to your organization.
Networking
Join us for a networking event at Seminar Brewing following the education portion. We will connect with peers over snacks and drinks while trying our hand at axe throwing.
Hotel
Understanding that some folks will be traveling a long distance to attend, we are pleased to offer hotel accommodations for the night prior to the event. To take advantage of this offer, please inform us of your accommodation needs at the time of your registration.
Note: The deadline to register and request hotel accommodations is March 29, 2024. We eagerly anticipate your presence at the Workers Comp and Safety Forum and look forward to providing you with a memorable and enriching experience.
