Unit-based team concepts

Blue Wrap Bins Save Money

  • Setting up designated bins in operating rooms for blue wrap recycling
  • Educating staff about the dos and don’ts of the bins, such as no infectious or solid waste
  • Coordinating with a local charity such as Goodwill to help with processing

What can your team do to "go green"? What else could your team do to reduce waste?

Alternatives to Calling in Sick

  • Highlighting options for taking days off, such as life balance days, vacation time and the Family and Medical Leave Act
  • Encouraging a Thrive culture and extending lunch hours to allow for walks and fresh air
  • Hosting monthly wellness potlucks to bond and build team unity

What can your team do to ensure employees know about the benefits and policies that affect them?
