staff appreciation

[traumamomtx30]

Need to do a staff appreciation day this month of Feb. Looking for any ideas to assist with this. Cheap ideas since we are on a tight budget; suprise, suprise. We thought of rice krispie treats but looking for other suggestions. I know there are some creative people out there! Our staff needs a pickup, moral is low.

Thanks:idea:

Once a year (it works out to two separate days actually) the directors and administration get together and do two potlucks, one for days and one for nights. They do the cooking, they walk around and relieve people so they can go get food. It's good stuff.

We do that too. Our hosp. admin. works a waffle maker, and serves the staff. He also takes that time to ask us if we are happy with our position, and what can be done to make us happier. He also gives us a form we can take with us and fill out later is something comes up, and that we can submit without names if we aren't comfortable.
