“Thank You” Board
Brenda created a “Thank You” board for her team in February. The board is located in the department’s break room and includes small cards for colleagues to write a message on. Each month, the board says “Thank You” in a language that is from the heritage of someone within their department. The month of August represents Bolivia and recognized the heritage of one of the Emergency Department’s hardest working SHA’s.

“Spin it to Win it”! Wellness Challenge
Amy created this challenge for her unit using an app called “Spin the Wheel” in which she customized to include some easy movements: arm circles, air boxing, squats, wall push-ups, knee highs, neck rotations, shoulder rolls, wall sits, toe touches, and yoga tree pose. Employees touch the center spin button and then do the movement that the spinning dial ends at. Movements can be for 30 seconds or 12 repetitions. After completing the movement, they are awarded a prize. There is also a virtual option for employees working remotely in which the same design can be replicated and used in a Zoom call via a shared screen: https://spinnerwheel.com/.
