Course Description
Practice Management
Burnout is a widespread problem that affects healthcare workers’ ability to provide optimal patient care. Furthermore, it poses a threat to the health care worker’s emotional and physical health.
In this course we will address burnout from a perspective that takes into the consideration not only the individual, but also their work, family and socio-cultural environments. This course integrates research including Cochrane Review findings and clinical mental health practice and encompasses prevention, early recognition and reversal, and recovery from burnout.
This course takes a pragmatic approach and you will be equipped and empowered to promote your resilience and wellbeing – and identify action points for change if they are indicated. You will also receive a tool kit comprised of tips, techniques and strategies to proactively promote your mental health in an ongoing way and increase your resilience in the face of job stress.
