Baby Boomers were a formidable force of energy, activity and drive in the 1960s and 70s! Now, forty years later, they continue to influence society by remaining actively engaged in their professions long past the typical retirement age. What are the risk and safety implications for these aging physicians and the ramifications on health care organizations, patients and other providers? Studies have touted both the benefits and risks of retaining them. They bring experience and wisdom to mentor, guide and serve the community. On the other hand, there is an increased potential for physical and mental diminishment. How can organizations create processes that ensure providers are competent, safe and fulfilled professionally while addressing the unique ergonomic, health and educational needs of an aging workforce? What should the organization do to ensure that medicine doesn't lose valuable knowledge and experience while it makes way for a new generation of physicians with new approaches, technology savvy and professional attitudes? This program will examine these fascinating questions. It will heighten your knowledge of the ways our physician generations differ and provide you with strategies, tools, and ideas for incorporating the older physician into 21st century health care.
As a result of this presentation, participants will be able to:
-
Describe the changing demographics of the health care workforce.
-
Identify risks and benefits of an aging physician workforce for hospital staffing as well as individual practice.
-
Plan a strategy for incorporating processes to address and accommodate shifting workplace demographics.
