A pizza for your thoughts

Sankara Orkin

Two years ago, Patricia Branowicki, MS, RN, NEA-BC, was seeking a way to hear directly from staff in Medical Patient Services (MPS) about what’s happening across the institution. As a result, the Vice President of MPS created Pizza with Patti, an employee lunch series where nurses, administrative staff and clinical assistants discuss workplace issues with Branowicki over a hot slice of pizza. More than 50 Pizza with Patti lunches have occurred since its inception. “These sessions have become integral to the work of nursing leaders throughout MPS,” says Branowicki. She attempts to visit each department twice a year, with attendance ranging from small intimate groups of four or five to large group sessions.
