In this article, I use a personal narrative case study approach to describe how the evolution of the Medical Assistance in Dying (MAiD) program at one Canadian hospital is informed by the model of a "care ecology," and how we designed our program to generate resilience and sustainability systemically and structurally, rather than relying on the self-care efforts of individuals. I will also reflect on the leader behaviours required to enable a care ecology, and how this challenges traditional approaches to leadership. This model may be adapted to other high-stress teams to promote longitudinal well-being for healthcare professionals and leaders, as well as quality care for patients and families.
在本文中，我采用个人叙事案例研究的方法，描述了一家加拿大医院的医疗辅助死亡（MAiD）计划是如何受到“关怀生态系统”模式的影响的，以及我们如何设计我们的计划，从系统和结构上产生弹性和可持续性，而不是依赖个人的自我保健。我还将反思为了实现关怀生态系统所需的领导行为，以及这如何挑战传统的领导方法。这种模式可以适用于其他高压力团队，以促进医疗保健专业人员和领导者的纵向幸福感，以及为患者和家庭提供优质的护理。
