Backup Plans and Blackjack: Don't Leave Your Hospital Medicine Backup System to Chance - On Demand 2025
Blackjack odds don’t belong in hospital staffing. In this on‑demand session, participants examine real backup/jeopardy models, describe trade‑offs, and evaluate literature, including multi‑institution insights. Through contrasting case studies, you’ll recognize barriers, identify leadership buy‑in, funding, and redundancy needs, and design practical triggers, compensation approaches, and monitoring tools—so your program creates resilient coverage without burning out clinicians.
