Healing Healthcare Initiative


The Healing Healthcare Initiative is rooted in six key principles essential for a health system to deliver quality, compassionate care by a thriving workforce.

Building on the principles of trauma- and resilience-informed care, the HHI Framework gives leaders practical tools based on several key principles:

  • Diversity and Equity: Promotes equity by identifying, addressing and dismantling all forms of structural discrimination and racism.
  • Inclusion, Voice and Choice: Ensures inclusion by involving its health workers indecision-making and creating solutions.
  • Mental Health and Well-being: Values its health workers’ mental health and well-being by reducing stigma, investing in programs and addressing systemic barriers.
  • Psychological and Physical Safety: Protects its health workers and patients by creating a safe, trusted environment.
  • Team Cohesiveness and Collaboration: Fosters mutual respect, shared purpose and collaborative learning among its health workers.
  • Trust and Trustworthiness: Builds trust with its patients and health workers by involving them in organization updates and decisions.

Healing Healthcare Initiative: Foundations of HHI Framework Coursework

All staff at our Schwartz Center member organizations now have access to the Foundations of HHI Framework Coursework through our Member Learning Center. The eight courses include an overview of HHI, a deep dive into each of the six key principles as well as a call-to-action that will enable you to synthesize all you learn and prepare for enacting the concepts within your organization.

Continuing education credits are available for each course totaling 8 credits.

 

In support of improving patient care, this activity has been planned and implemented by CME Outfitters, LLC, and The Schwartz Center for Compassionate Healthcare. CME Outfitters is jointly accredited by the Accreditation Council for Continuing Medical Education (ACCME), the Accreditation Council for Pharmacy Education (ACPE), and the American Nurses Credentialing Center (ANCC), to provide continuing education for the healthcare team.

Physicians (ACCME), Nurses (ANCC), Social Workers (ASWB), Chaplains (BCCI) and other healthcare professionals (IPCE) may claim credit for their participation.

 

 

If you have questions about the Foundations of HHI Framework Coursework or how to enroll, please contact your Schwartz Center Advisor or membership@theschwartzcenter.org

The Healing Healthcare Initiative has been developed and is offered with the generous support of the Brave of Heart Fund.
