Charlotte, North Carolina -- June 5, 2007 — Magnet status is the highest recognition by The American Nurses Credentialing Center (ANCC), and is awarded to healthcare organizations displaying exemplary levels of sustained nursing care excellence.
On Thursday, June 7 at 1:00 EST, the human capital research firm Morehead will offer a one-hour webcast on how hospitals can create a highly committed nursing care culture.
“The Magnet Status Difference: Pathways to Achieving and Maintaining Magnet Designated Nursing Environments” will explore the ANCC’s 14 Forces of Magnetism and share findings from research conducted on non-Magnet and Magnet-designated hospitals.
Morehead’s Vice President of Research & Development, David Rowlee, Ph.D., will address these and other questions:
• What are the key workplace factors that must be measured and improved to prepare for successful Magnet nursing status?
• How do employee attitudes in Magnet-designated nursing facilities differ from those in non-Magnet environments?
• Which key workplace factors must be sustained and improved upon to preserve and renew Magnet designation?
“Our research shows that Magnet designation positively influences a number of performance indicators, including attraction and retention of nursing staff and greater confidence from the public,” said Rowlee. “The implications of the designation go well beyond the boundaries of nursing services.”
The free webcast will provide attendees with practical steps for fostering a high-performing work environment. To sign up for the webcast, go to http://moreheadassociates.com/events/contents_event9.htm.
