What Dental Can Teach Us About Workplace Wellness!

Food For Thought - the Podcast

When you think about going to Dental at CFB Edmonton, you might be thinking about the last time you flossed or how it's time to get that cavity filled or for that root canal. But when you're there, do you notice anything...different? We did. When my colleagues in Health Promotion came back from a meeting there, they were singing the praises of the different things that had been implemented at Dental to make it an exemplary place to work. So I had to know and I'm happy to share this conversation about what Dental did to make it a fun AND productive place. Every unit or regiment or location is different, but there are things that can be done that will fit the community and culture anywhere, to make any workplace one where people are excited to work, to show up everyday and to contribute and be productive. I'm personally going to take one idea and implement it at Health Promotion, which I am super excited about - listen to the episode to find out what that is!
