SHARE is excited about a number of recent developments involving Unit Based Teams, or UBTs. Our UBTs, and our union’s partnership with UMass Memorial in improvement work, are designed to change SHARE members’ everyday experience of being at work.
Most UBTs had to pause their improvement work during the omicron surge, but are now getting back into a regular cadence of meeting and working on projects selected by members on the front line. Here are some highlights:
The Partnership Office is growing! We welcome back former SHARE member Crystal Swenson as she re-joins our hospital as a new UBT coach.
UBTs are now tracking their work using UBT Boards on Innovation Station
A new UBT Toolkit is up on the hub
SHARE leaders are helping UBTs find and fund equity work
New UBTs are currently launching in
Pre Surgical Evaluation (Memorial)
Endoscopy Suite (University)
Endoscopy Scheduling (Hahnemann)
Barre
Heart Station
Rheumatology
