Hospital Matters: One hospital's DIY solution to the staff child care challenge
from Hospital Matters from the Minnesota Hospital Association
In Ely, child care is at a premium, and that was having an impact on staffing at the Ely Bloomenson Community Hospital, as parents struggled to find care for their kids while they cared for patients. The EBCH foundation and leadership decided to tackle the problem head on and set up their own child care center close to the hospital for staff. CEO Patti Banks even got licensed as a child care provider to fill in when needed. This week, hear from her and nursing services assistant Erin Manning and registered nurse Emily Lakner, who both utilize the child care center. Host: Tim Nelson Guests: Patti Banks, Erin Manning and Emily Lakner, Ely-Bloomenson Community Hospital
