  • 1.  New Employee Orientation - Virtual or In-Person?

    Posted 11 days ago
    Hospital COs:  Would you mind sharing the current way you are providing training at new employee orientation (in-person, live virtual, or self-guided online course)?

    I know many organizations went fully virtual during the pandemic, and I am curious as to the current state of things at peer hospitals. Thank you!

    Tracy,

     

    We are continuing to use Zoom for new employee orientation.  We can train more employees at one time and it also frees up parking spaces for patients on those days.  One thing that was noticed is that new employees were getting lax about having their cameras on, so we've now made it a requirement.  If they don't have access to a web camera, they can always use ones we have available on site.  Also, I want to try and make our presentation more interactive by using polls, etc.

    Hey Tracy! I was surprised to see an email from an old friend and colleague.

     

    At the organization where I work we are set up for any type of orientation. If it is possible to get everyone together we do an in-person orientation. If not we can do a Teams meeting where I can share my presentation screen and discuss the information with the new hires. I also have a pre-recorded version of my presentation that new hires can watch and contact me with any questions or concerns; for situations when I am out or if there is an orientation scheduled between our regular orientation dates.

    We are doing in-person new employee orientation and they also must complete 2 online learning modules (one is overall compliance and the other is more privacy and security focused).

    I just started a new role for a global company. A significant portion of the workforce is fully remote, which is not new, pre-dating the pandemic. My NEO included Zoom with a live trainer for HR type things and self-guided training for other topics such as compliance, privacy and security.

    Tracy,

    We returned to in-person orientation earlier this year, with sessions twice/month to reduce size of the group to allow for adequate distancing. We have, in common with many folks, become fairly sophisticated in our use of virtual technology, but people were feeling the need to come together. Context: small community hospital on-boarding an average of 12-15 people in each session, all presenters and attendees fully vaccinated and masked, per NYS regs. We also supplement with on-line modules.

    We set aside 1 day per month for all new employee trainings, which includes Core Values and HR orientation, Privacy, Security, Compliance/FWA, and OSHA trainings.  We prefer the employees to attend in person, but we have allowed some to Zoom if there are remote employees.

    I have a one hour in-person presentation that covers the compliance plan/program (the 7 elements) and HIPAA.

    Aloha,

    At our FQHC we do monthly new employee orientation virtually via zoom.  We require staff to have their cameras on during orientation.  I really dont see us going back to in-person.
