4 ways to reduce toxicity in the workplace

Cultivating a positive and supportive environment is key to reducing toxicity for perioperative nurses. First, nip negativity in the bud. Avoid gossiping or dwelling on mistakes. Instead, focus on solutions and learning opportunities. Second, celebrate each other's wins! Recognize successes, big or small, to boost morale and create a sense of accomplishment for the entire team. Finally, open communication is crucial. Foster an environment where nurses feel comfortable expressing concerns and ideas without fear of judgment. By focusing on building one another up and working together, perioperative nurses can create a collaborative space that thrives on mutual respect and minimizes negativity.
