How hospital food can fuel sustainability efforts." width="700" height="532"></p></div><p>Care providers have long maintained that healthy diets are a fundamental cornerstone of overall robust health. And an increasing number of hospitals and health systems are putting their own menus to the test.</p><p>Last year, <a href="https://www.nychealthandhospitals.org/" target="_blank" title="NYC Health + Hospitals homepage.">NYC Health + Hospitals</a> became the nation’s largest municipal health system to make plant-based food the default for inpatient meals.</p><p>Not only did the patient satisfaction rating of the health system’s revamped menu soar to more than 90%, but the switch has also reduced food-related carbon emissions by 36%, as well as resulted in an initial cost savings of 59 cents per tray.</p><p>The goodbye to animal-based meals is in line with the American Medical Association’s 2017 resolution calling on hospitals to provide healthful plant-based meals and eliminate processed meats.</p><p>NYC Health + Hospitals serves approximately 3 million meals a year and expects nearly 60% of patients continue with the vegetarian option after their first meal. Reported culinary hits include Moroccan vegetable tagine, Spanish vegetable paella, garden Bolognese with rigatoni and a pad thai noodle bowl.</p><p>The long-term goal is not just to encourage patients to eat plant-based meals during their hospital stays, but encourage them to make changes to their diet post-discharge, including what less meat means for their health and how it can make a positive impact regarding climate change.</p><p><a href="/aha-center-health-innovation-market-scan/2023-10-03-how-hospital-food-can-fuel-sustainability-efforts"><strong>Read more about NYC Health + Hospitals efforts.</strong></a></p></div></div><div class="col-md-3"><div><h4>Resources on the Role of Hospitals</h4><ul><li><a href="/community-benefit">Benefiting Communities</a></li><li><a href="/roleofhospitals">All Case Studies</a></li></ul></div></div></div></div> Fri, 17 Nov 2023 10:37:32 -0600 Story-telling /education-events/whats-your-story-how-craft-narratives-using-human-centered-design-inspire-your-audience-mar-8 <div class="TTevent"> /* Forces the event Content Type to be 100% */ .container .row .col-md-8{ width: 100% } .event-registration-link a{ margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; display: block; text-align: center; } .event-registration-link a.btn-block { max-width: 300px; } .TTevent h3{ color:#002855; } .TTeventBonus{ color:#9d2235; font-weight:700; font-style: italic; } .TTeventdate{ font-weight: 700; font-size: 18px; color: #555555bb; line-height: 20px; } .TTeventSponsor img{ max-height:100px; } <p class="TTeventdate">March 8, 2023</p> <p>This interactive webinar shares fundamental principles of storytelling and helps viewers reflect on a personal story. This workshop gives you the chance to work on your story and apply human-centered design to a wide variety of challenges that we face in health care. This webinar is about Story + Telling. Before viewing, it can be helpful to think through the features of a ‘story’ (content and team alignment) and the essentials of the ‘telling’ (channels and communication plan). It will help you take the best practices and apply them to a real challenge that you face. Is there a request for resources you need to make? A TeamSTEPPS initiative you are launching? A quality improvement you would like to scale? We work on ways to understand your audience, create a strong outline and tell a story that is visually and narratively compelling.</p> <h4>Learning Objectives:</h4> <p>In this webinar, speakers aim to show how teams can:</p> <ul> <li>Understand how to apply empathy tools to learn what will resonate with key stakeholders</li> <li>Apply storytelling principles and a fundamental structure to begin outlining your story</li> <li>Utilize presentation and pitch deck skills that will be compelling and help influence change</li> <li>Empathize and include patients and families</li> <li>Engage and align around a shared narrative</li> </ul> <div class="row"> <div class="col-md-5"> <h4>Speakers:</h4> <ul> <li><strong>Alex Spiroff</strong><br> <em>Strategy Designer,</em> Do Tank</li> <li><strong>Adam Kohlrus, MS, CPHQ, CPPS</strong><br> <em>Partner and Strategy Designer,</em> Do Tank</li> </ul> <p class="text-align-center"><a class="btn btn-wide btn-primary" href="/system/files/media/file/2023/03/AHA_Team_Training_Webinar_Slides_Mar_2023.pdf" target="_blank">Download the slides</a></p> <div class="col-md-6"> <h4>SPONSORED BY:</h4> </div> <div class="col-md-6"> <p><a href="https://q-reviews.com/q-reviews/" target="_blank"><img alt="Quality Reviews logo" data-entity-type="" data-entity-uuid="" src="/sites/default/files/2021-01/Quality_Reviews_transparent_logo_200.png" /></a></p> </div> </div>--> </div> <div class="col-md-7"> <div></div> </div> </div> </div> <div data-embed-button="webform_embed" data-entity-embed-display="view_mode:webform.token" data-entity-type="webform" data-entity-uuid="0b43a680-6f37-4d3f-9bf9-4cd6c7c7ddc5" data-langcode="en" data-entity-embed-display-settings="[]" class="embedded-entity"> <div id="edit-processed-text" class="js-form-item form-item js-form-type-processed-text form-item- js-form-item- form-no-label"> <div class="TTwebinarHide"> .webform-submission-form { max-width: 700px; } .TTwebinarHide{ display:none } .event-content.panel .TTwebinarHide { display:block; background-color: #fff; padding: 15px 15px 15px 15px; border: solid 2px #307FE2; text-align: center; } <p><a href="/center/team-training">Team Training</a> offers a variety of webinars - view our <a href="/center/team-training/webinars">current offering(s)</a> or browse the <a href="/center/team-training/webinars/library">library</a>.</p> </div> </div> </div> Wed, 14 Dec 2022 09:39:24 -0600 Story-telling
