What is this article about?

<p>Maintaining our own motivation at work can be a challenge at times, let alone raising motivation of our team. Yet, the workplace is constantly changing and our ability to respond well to those changes depends on our own motivation and the motivation of our coworkers. The rewards of a motivated healthcare team are greater healthcare outcomes and greater efficiency in healthcare delivery. How do we motivate our staff? Developing your emotional intelligence will go a long way to improving your own and your staff's levels of motivation. We cannot expect to see motivation from our staff unless we exhibit it </p>

Sometimes I find it really hard to make time for my learning, but I was blown away by how easy it is with the Ausmed app. I can fit it in during breaks or on the bus to work.
