March 18 is the national Health Workforce Well-Being (HWWB) Day. The National Academy of Medicine (NAM) recognizes HWWB Day as an annual event to bring awareness to an improved health workforce well-being and patient care outcomes. AOTA is recognized as a Change Maker with the National Academy of Medicine.
The Health HWWB Day aims to recognize the importance of protecting health workers’ well-being to sustain our health system and ensure quality patient care. HWWB Day is also a day for action—learning from one another on the progress to advance the movement to support health worker well-being and expand evidence-informed solutions to make system-wide changes to improve health worker well-being and transform cultures.
