[MCOH-EH] Employee health and patient wellbeing

[william hyman]

Besides immunizations and direct threats from employee illness, and maybe
drug use, and shootings by disgruntled employees or ex-employees,do people
think about the relationships between employee health and patient well
being? .

One example is that if an injured worker goes immediately off the job there
will be at least a short term shortage of staff, with staffing levels
perhaps already being tight. There might also be a morale problem for
remaining workers depending on how their colleague got hurt and what the
response was. Also, workers might avoid situations in which there is an
increase in perceived risk.  And no doubt other effects.

How are these effects taken into account?
