Health care workers often find themselves in stressful situations, working to deliver immediate care for someone in need, regardless of the circumstance.    A national study published by the CDC in 2023 revealed that nearly one out of three public health workers experienced at least one form of workplace violence such as receiving threats, being bullied or harassed, or experiencing stigma due to their public health work. Some of this is a result of the COVID pandemic, but even as COVID numbers ebb and flow, the threat still exists.    Acknowledging this problem, The Guthrie Clinic, including its six hospitals and dozens of medical offices throughout its 10,000 square mile territory, has officially joined the Respect and Heal Campaign, with members of local law enforcement and dozens of caregivers in support.   Launched by Upstate University Hospital in October 2023, Respect and Heal is a regional initiative to present a united front in support of frontline staff, from doctors and nurses to environmental and food service workers and all other members of the caregiving team.   “We are all caregivers because each of us plays a role in providing the health care our patients deserve,” said Dr. Edmund Sabanegh, President and CEO, The Guthrie Clinic. “And in providing this care, we firmly believe each individual deserves as much protection as possible, regardless of their role.”  This initiative is designed to keep hospitals and clinical spaces safe places of healing.
