Hospital Safety Symposium coverage: Safety training with a smile

Hi again, it's Scott Wallask writing from Vegas. I'm not sure I expected to see shoulder massages being given by audience members today, but that's exactly what happened during Terry Jo Gile's presentation.
 
Gile, a safety expert from North Fort Myers, FL, offered "stretch breaks" during her discussion about new developments in laboratory safety, and at point encouraged participants to rub the shoulders of the colleagues sitting next to them.
 
Yes, the activity was worth a few laughs, but Gile's take-home message was that safety training with an element of fun or humor is more likely to get people involved.
