Building a Workplace Culture of Belonging in Healthcare

In this week’s impactful episode of the Healthcare Experience Matters Podcast, we delve into the core aspects of fostering a culture of belonging. Belonging should be an unwavering cultural value, as we firmly believe it leads to a more engaged healthcare workforce, instilling a deeper sense of purpose for all involved. Ultimately, building a culture of belonging entails creating an environment where team members and staff eagerly contribute, and where we would confidently entrust the care of our loved ones. Joining us for this insightful interview is Jim Kinsey, FPCC, PLCC, CDP, alongside Healthcare Experience Foundation co-founder and president Katie Owens, MHA, CPXP. Jim is a national expert in person-centered care and Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI), particularly focusing on fostering belonging and developing strategies for employee and team engagement. With a 30-year career in healthcare, encompassing roles as a bedside nurse and in management and leadership, Jim has dedicated the past 18 years to consulting and creating person-centered care environments in both long-term and acute care settings, ranging from small rural critical access hospitals to large urban healthcare systems. We are thrilled to welcome Jim as a first-time guest on the HX Matters Podcast and eagerly anticipate many more enlightening discussions in future episodes of our show.
