Spotlighted Event: MITSS Hope Award

Congratulations to Sue Scott, Laura Hirschinger, Myra McCoig and the entire forYOU team on receiving the national MITSS Hope Award. The MITSS Hope Award was established in 2008 to recognize individuals or groups who support healing and restore hope to patients, families and clinicians affected by an unexpected medical event. This award recognized MU Health Care's newly established forYOU team as an industry leader in developing a unique support program for healthcare workers. The forYOU team consists of 51 volunteer staff members specifically trained to provide 24-hour on-call care to their co-workers. When activated, members of the forYOU team establish a confidential dialogue with the affected clinician. Rather than focusing on details of the event, the supportive discussions center on the emotional and physical reactions to the unexpected event. For more information about the forYOU team, please contact Sue Scott at scotts@health.missouri.edu.
