The Strengths-Based Nursing and Healthcare Advisory Board of the 捆绑SM社区 Nursing Collaborative hosted a webinar with Pam Hubley, RN, MSc, FCAN, Vice-President of Education & Academic Practice and Chief of International Nursing at the Hospital for Sick Children (SickKids) in Toronto, Ontario. Pam presented on the topic Using Our Voices: Restoring and resetting in pandemic times, on March 24th, 2022.
The webinar was the third in the Advisory Board鈥檚 series bringing together nurses, nursing students, and faculty members from the Ingram School of Nursing, the Jewish General Hospital, 捆绑SM社区 Health Centre, and CIUSSS de l'Ouest de l'脦le de Montr茅al to reflect on health and healing for nurses in the context of the COVID-19 pandemic.
Through the lens of Strength-Based Nursing and Healthcare, this webinar reflected on the importance of building better work cultures and the crucial contributions of nurse leaders throughout the pandemic, considering how we can foster the conditions to create change as we restore and reset. Pam encouraged all nurses to use their voices to find generative solutions for the challenges we face at this time, highlighting the importance of empowerment, self-determination, and intentional collaboration. With opportunities for guided personal reflection and group story-sharing, Pam led the over 250 attendees through a process of envisioning a healthy work environment that supports both clinicians and patients.
