ACU STAR2 Center Workforce Training & Technical Assistance Professional Development Series - Session 2 (2024). Resource Type: Archived Webinar. Description: Join ACU’s STAR² Center for an interactive session focused on supporting workforce well-being and developing an organizational culture of wellness. As rates of burnout, compassion fatigue, moral distress, and more continue to rise, it is imperative that health center leadership invest in and implement organizational changes that directly address the well-being needs of their workforce.

Turnover not only impacts a health center’s operations and the satisfaction of employees, but also the services it is able to provide patients and the community. This session will view well-being from four key areas of need: financial, emotional, physical, and communication.
