Hospital-sponsored POWER UP RETREATS presented in one- day on hospital campus are for nurses seeking balance, well-being, and renewed energy. The POWER UP RETREAT is designed to bring delight and motivation back to the practice of nursing. “Power Up” is not just a theme but a personal and professional road map that nurses create and takeaway from the day-long retreat.

From remarkably empowering keynote presentations to interactive workshops and breakouts, nurses will experience and practice new ways to “Power Up” both personal life and nursing career.

Hospitals can select from a variety of POWER UP RETREAT topics including:

· Preventing Burnout, Stress Related Disease, and Injury

· Understanding Bias and Embracing Diversity

· Cultivating Cooperation at Home and Work

· Recognizing Leadership in Yourself and Others

· Personal Branding, Style, and Nurse Makeovers

· Solving Chronic Pain

· Nurse Entrepreneurship

· Dealing with Workplace Conflict and Passive Aggression

· Reigniting Your Dreams

· The Evolution of Nursing and Its Future in U.S. Healthcare

· Succeeding at Weight Management and Positive Body Image

· Finding Joy in The Workplace

· Nurses as Educators and Community Change Agents

· Finding Energy the Healthy Way: Nutrition, Movement, and Mindfulness

Activities, edutainment, healthy morning snacking, and a nutritious delicious lunch are included. National partners provide door prizes and goodie bags. The hospital is also encouraged to “reward” its nurses with small gifts and/or other tokens of respect and gratitude. Hospitals retain POWER UP NURSING as an employee wellness benefit. Partners support the initiative and are promoted both in retreats and on the digital platform.
