We are striving to create a joyful practice environment and create structural elements that support joy, purpose, and meaning in work by integrating support, increasing utilization of existing programs and resources, and identifying important gaps where new efforts are needed. We have an ultimate goal to evolve to an organizational mindset of analyzing how every change affects the health and wellbeing of providers.
