Role Model Hadassah W.

		My name is Hadassah W., BSN, RN, PMH-BC. I've been at Vanderbilt University Medical Center (VUMC) since 2019.
I work as a registered nurse (RN) in the Vanderbilt Psychiatric Hospital (VPH) Float Pool. I chose to focus on social wellness because I wanted to build morale and camaraderie with my coworkers. I started with small steps like reading emails related to events happening on VUMC campus. This inspired me to launch and volunteer monthly with the Community Outreach Program (COP). I had to overcome scheduling conflicts as my daily workflow interfered with the potential outreach opportunities. Instead of focusing on those conflicts, I now look ahead on the COP website to see the dates for upcoming events and intentionally block off my calendar. VUMC has the tools to help me achieve my goal. Some tools include the COP website, the Nursing Wellness Committee, and the Teams calendar. Another good process I find helpful is collaborating with my Clinical Staff Leader to ensure my availability to plan and participate. Because of my positive journey to social wellness, I continue to encourage my coworkers to engage as their schedules allow. We now collectively work on social wellness as we volunteer and seek opportunities to do fun activities advertised by VUMC. We would love to have you join us in our upcoming activities. Happy Volunteering 😊
