Leader Exchange: Transforming Perioperative Staffing Practices
Modernizing Perioperative Staffing: A Data-Driven Approach to Boost Efficiency and Morale
This panel webinar explores the journey of Baptist Medical Center Beaches in modernizing their perioperative staffing practices. Historically, scheduling was a complex and time-consuming task, impacting operational efficiency and staff satisfaction. Driven by rising case volume variability and staffing shortages, leaders transitioned from manual planning to a transparent, data-driven process.

The discussion focuses on practical process changes and sustainable culture shifts that other surgical services leaders can apply.
