Caring for our Health Care Team
The pandemic has brought many stressors for healthcare providers on the frontlines, including PPE shortages and long days and weeks treating and grieving for COVID-19 patients. With the pandemic being an omnipresent force, providers can’t just ‘leave work at work.’ Its stressors put our frontline colleagues at risk for anxiety, depression, compassion fatigue, and burnout. That’s why we have included these resources to help healthcare professionals manage work-related stressors and increase resilience.
