EHC Program Seeks Information on Health Care Worker Safety and Wellness

Dec 13, 2024

Per the notice below, the Effective Health Care (EHC) Program is seeking information on health care worker burnout.

Opportunity to Submit Scientific Information

The Effective Health Care (EHC) Program is interested in receiving supplemental evidence and data (SEADs) for systematic reviews that are relevant to the questions in our evidence reports. To ensure that it has full access to relevant research, whether or not it is published, the EHC Program is interested in receiving SEADs containing detailed study-specific information. Opportunities to submit scientific information are available for:

Impact of Healthcare Worker Safety and Wellness: A Systematic Review
(Available for submission until January 13, 2025)

The key decisional dilemma for this systematic review is to identify the primary predisposing conditions that lead to healthcare worker (HCW) burnout, the organizational strategies that are effective in reducing HCW burnout, and the downstream benefits of preventing or minimizing burnout that may impact HCW’s patients, families, communities, healthcare organizations, and society.

[Section 944 (c) of the Public Health Service Act, 42 U.S.C. 299c-3(c), requires that information collected for research conducted or supported by AHRQ that identifies individuals or establishments be used only for the purpose for which it was supplied unless they consent to the use of the information for another purpose.]
