Our account has an incredibly vibrant Career Staffing Center that hired & onboarded more than 300 successful candidates that auditioned last year for multiple departments & disciplines throughout the Medical Center. We put a tremendous amount of thought & energy into our Day-One Orientation presentation stressing that they have 12 weeks to not only prove they are reliable, dependable & professional (an all-round good fit) but that they are Safety vigilant in everything that they do with everyone that they encounter in our very busy potentially dangerous & hazardous healthcare setting. Day one we introduce the Safety Lens Concept through which everything should be viewed. This is a place of healing not of injury. There is nothing more important than your personal safety & the safety of those around you, whether under our roof or even at home with your loved ones. Safety must be constantly a part of their mindset to successfully audition to become a permanent benefit eligible Albany Med employee. The Orientation Slide Deck James created is World Class and SAFETY weaves in & out of every slide.
These efforts & our commitment to the 4Cs have resulted in significantly less injuries & even near-misses and truly promotes our philosophy of everyone not only having the right but also the OBLIGATION to question any task that causes concern about their personal safety, the safety of others or the safety of our services with uninterrupted vigilance.
