The Float HCN will meet with employees onsite or virtually to assess and address non-clinical resource and healthcare needs, hold educational sessions, organize volunteer events, and maintain service continuity during PTO, leaves, vacancies, onboarding, new market launches, and periods of increased demand. In the community, the Float HCN will meet with local organizations to build McKesson's presence and identify new programs that can support the community.
