Events
Healthcare workforce continues to be a hot button issue. Iowa communities are facing challenges recruiting and retaining across the healthcare workforce population, including nursing, pharmacy, direct care, public health, and others.
The Iowa Medical Society along with partner organizations are working together to assess and evaluate the current landscape and future of the healthcare workforce in Iowa. From these meetings, the statewide action plan will evolve to address current workforce challenges and opportunities.
We want to hear from YOU! We want to hear from people within communities about their communities.
Who should attend: Physicians, pharmacists, nurses, direct care workers, public health personnel, all healthcare professionals & administrators, human resource professionals, educators, community organizations, local business, patients & families, and community members.

Recognize. Recover. Rebuild. is a physician-physician, peer-based programing recognizing the unique and exacerbating impact of the pandemic on physician wellness. This program features Dr. Charles Keller, MD, a physician leader with expertise spanning the C-suite through boots-on-the ground critical care during the pandemic, and a highly personal experience with burnout and recovery.
Recognize. Recover. Rebuild. programming offers the opportunity to break from didactic and move to relationship-based learning, translating principles and techniques into real-life, true-to-practice application and experiences. Through this programming participants are able to break down the burnout wall, appreciate the power of the person in the professional, and gain tested-and-true tools and techniques to build resilience and fight burnout – for themselves and others.
This programming offers the ability to bridge the individual towards system-based approaches through access to individualized Maslach Burnout Inventory Survey for Medical Professionals and the Areas of Worklife Survey group reports.
