Communication
Programs and results
What we aim to solve
The US healthcare system currently employs 22 million healthcare workers. These workers are fragmented into countless small, specialty based associations & organizations that advocate for individual groups, and fail to recognize our common needs. There is a paucity of interdisciplinary associations serving ALL healthcare workers and patients alike, and professional organizations have several layers of bureaucracy between leaders and bedside workers. Through the pandemic, healthcare workers have been increasingly interested in advocacy, policy change, and organizing. IMPACT in Healthcare strives to fill this gap by serving as an interdisciplinary organization that serves ALL healthcare workers and patients by listening to their direct needs. Our education, advocacy, and actions are informed by the on-the-ground experiences of the workers and patients that fill our ranks. We have intentionally created a direct line of communication from the bedside.

Charting impact
Four powerful questions that require reflection about what really matters - results.
What is the organization aiming to accomplish?
IMPACT works to create a work environment where Healthcare workers are empowered to provide appropriate care. This includes:
• Safe staffing ratios
• Mental healthcare, reproductive healthcare
• Protection from workplace violence
• Safe work hour restrictions

• Student loan forgiveness
What are the organization's key strategies for making this happen?
IMPACT unites patients and healthcare workers of all levels, specialties, departments, ages, genders, nationalities, passions, politics, and creeds. Healthcare workers are fragmented in their various professional organizations but we have a common enemy in a for-profit health system.
