Overview:

Patterns of vicarious trauma, moral injury, emotional labor and chronic workplace stress can lead to Compassion Fatigue among professional care providers. Compassion fatigue is commonly found in healthcare professionals such as nurses, physicians, nursing home staff, and personal support workers (PSW). It is common among emergency responders, including police, military, firefighters, and paramedics. Compassion fatigue is prevalent in nonprofits, community support service organizations and spiritual care providers.

Compassion Fatigue can negatively affect employee engagement, innovation, and work-life balance, causing leaves of absence, job turnover, and resignations. This workshop provides practical information and solutions for leaders, managers, and employees experiencing Compassion Fatigue.


Target Audience:

  • Healthcare, nonprofit, community services, education and emergency response organizations.

  • This training can be customized for conferences, workplace leadership, managers, teams and employees who want to gain practical solutions for preventing and overcoming compassion fatigue while supporting a healthy organizational culture.
