A Simulation-Based Coaching Leadership Intervention to Address Pediatric Health Workforce Retention and Wellbeing

Principal Investigators: Catharine Walsh, Abiramy (Abi) Sriharan, Lennox Huang

The Canadian pediatric healthcare workforce is facing significant challenges. To strengthen and foster pediatric health workforce sustainability, our research seeks to understand the unique experiences of pediatric providers to inform adaptation of a managerial coaching intervention. Our overarching aim is to implement and evaluate CLIMB (Coaching Leaders to Improve Management and well-Being), an evidence-informed leadership intervention to address burnout, and foster a resilient, equitable, diverse, and inclusive pediatric health workforce. Insights generated will provide decision-makers with evidence to address the pediatric healthcare workforce crisis and strengthen the healthcare system’s capacity to improve the health and wellbeing of children and youth.
