New Year, New Challenge!

One of our core values at Medstar is “Seek Growth”. We pride ourselves as a team that has a passion for learning and growth. Seeking growth begins during onboarding where we receive the necessary training to fulfill our roles. Throughout our employment, we are offered continuing education and further technical skills training. Aside from this, we get opportunities to work with someone from a different department, to mentor someone, to lead a project, to receive coaching, or to receive feedback from clients.

Seeking growth entails that we are willing to improve in line with evolving trends and best practices in our industry. Especially in the kind of service we provide, growth and learning opportunities can boost our everyday confidence in our role and enable us to provide the best care for our passengers. Learning opportunities are also important in enhancing our collective belongingness to Medstar and sense of ownership to its mission. 

So this year, may we also strengthen our resolve to seek growth and learning! Below are five simple suggestions that you can try to get started on that path:

1. Set goals and share these with your manager. 

2. Talk to a supervisor from your department and ask for tips to get better.

3. Choose one skill that is important to your role and work consistently on it for one month.

4. Take advantage of opportunities to learn a new skill and help others, such as covering for someone.

5. Find someone newer to the company than you and be a mentor by asking questions and sharing advice. 

This 2023, Medstar will undoubtedly reach new heights because individually and as an organization, we will seek to grow, evolve and be better at driving happiness through safe and reliable service.
