Self-compassion: Building Resilience in Healthcare Professionals (Part One)
Webinar Description: The enduring problem of empathetic distress in healthcare workers is closely tied to their tendency to internalize their patients' problems. Over time, this ongoing burden can lead to detrimental physiological effects. However, research has shown that by practicing self-compassion and then applying that to patients, we can be more productive and better handle the stress that arises when caring for others. This course will focus on the concept of compassion and equip learners with tools to practice self-compassion in order to help themselves cope so they can better help their patients.
Learner Outcomes: Upon completion of this webinar, participants will be able to:
- Define the different physiological responses that arise from empathetic distress
vs. compassion - Identify why empathetic distress can lead to detrimental physiological effects in health care workers and how compassion has the opposite effect
- Recognize the definition of emotional regulation and practice how to address it through trigger identification and training
