AtlantiCare Leader Handbook

Example: • Communication: Lower Share the Success Bonus than previous years

• Message: “This year the Share the Success amount that was approved by the Board is $XXX. I understand that it is lower than what you have received previously, but we did not achieve as many goals this year. When the organization achieves its goals, we are more successful and therefore are in a better financial position to offer larger bonuses. We’re not where we wanted to be this year, but let’s all work together next year to make sure we are accomplishing our goals. Does anyone have any ideas on what we can do differently in our department?” AtlantiCare Foundation The AtlantiCare Foundation was established in 1977 and charged with generating significant charitable support to ensure AtlantiCare’s vision of building healthy communities was carried out to benefit current and future generations residing in southeastern New Jersey. As healthcare continues to evolve to be more efficient, affordable and effective, philanthropy and the support of our donors becomes more important than ever to our continued success and growth. Employee Giving Campaign The AtlantiCare Foundation supports the evolution of AtlantiCare and the community it is proud to serve by raising funds in support of our overall strategic plan. Each year, the Foundation sponsors the “AtlantiCare&Me Employee Giving Campaign – A Perfect Pair,”which is an opportunity to support projects or funds that impact your own workplace, co-workers and the community we serve on a daily basis. Employees can visit the site – www.atlanticare.org/employeegiving – to learn more about employee giving and to see FAQ. Leader Expectation(s): Leaders should be knowledgeable about all of the Foundation’s activities and are encouraged to participate in them, namely the Employee Giving Campaign. Starfish Fund The Starfish Fund provides financial assistance to AtlantiCare employees who experience a catastrophic event. The Starfish Fund raises money all year long through fundraisers and a payroll deduction program, and is used in lieu of individual departments/floors conducting their own fundraisers. More information can be found on The Starfish (The Starfish > About You > Human Resources > Forms & Links > Starfish Fund Application). Leader Expectation(s): Leaders are expected to know this resource exists and when to refer employees to it. Designations We pursue Designations to affirm what we do well and celebrate achievements. It’s a strategic differentiator from our competitors. Some of the designations we pursue are: Magnet, Leapfrog, CMS 5 Star, and HEI. In addition to the Employee Giving Campaign, the Foundation supports many other activities. For more information, you can visit their website .
