Recognizing RESO Excellence & Caregiver Experience – August 29, 2023

Thank you for the ongoing support of RESO Excellence in this newsletter.  We would like to the trial of an expansion of information we are gathering.

The 2022 RESO annual Caregiver Experience Survey, indicated that 55% of our Caregivers acknowledged significant action had been taken as a result of previous surveys. We would like to increase the sentiment. In response, we would like to expand the RESO Easy Button to include an Employee Experience option.

If an individual selects the Employee Experience path in the survey, they will be promoted to questions and free text areas where one might share experience as a Providence RESO caregiver.  The collected responses will be considered by RESO leadership for continual improvement and sharing successes across RESO.

RESO Excellence remains your opportunity to acknowledge your peers for displaying our Core Value of Excellence. Every RESO Update, these nominations will be shared across the organization.
