Description:

How to prevent burnout in healthcare and why are healthcare professionals so stressed out??? Burnout syndrome and compassion fatigue are known to be highly prevalent in healthcare professionals due to factors closely correlated with an individual’s commitment level as well as the challenges associated with day-to-day responsibilities. The resulting burnout causes chronic depletion of coping resources from prolonged exposure to the variety of stressors encountered.

Effective strategies are shared regarding the management of such sources, as well as suggestions on how to incorporate a resilient mindset into daily thinking. Other physical and neurological frameworks are shared including recommended wellness strategies and simple steps that can change the course of direction. Ultimately, this course should result in a higher quality life for healthcare professionals with greater health outcomes.
