… so are ice cream sundaes.
Our hospital recently offered an ice cream sundae party for each department or floor that completed a feedback survey about hospital operations and hospital management. The surveys were anonymous and only contained the identifying information about where the computer was located in the hospital so the administration could track where the feedback came from.
Administration totaled up all employees in each department and used that number as the base. In order to qualify to attend the ice cream sundae party, the department or floor had to have an 85% participation rate.
Most departments had more than 100% participation, one having a record 166% participation.
See how seemingly small things can motivate people to act?
Doesn’t take much where you work.. what’s the average BMI of the staff?:) Sounds like a cardiologists’ wet dream…offer ice cream as an incentive on a regular basis and your er will be hopping and the cath labs busy….good for business.
