Caring for the Caregiver: Evidence-Based Practices to Reduce Stress & Burnout

In today’s fast-paced world burnout and compassion fatigue are on the rise among clinicians, clinical staff, and family caregivers alike. But there are simple evidence-based practices which can help to mitigate the effects of chronic stress and bring a greater sense of balance and joy throughout the day without adding more to your task or to-do list. 

In this one hour, interactive workshop, caregivers will learn about and experience simple self-care tips and techniques from three well-researched practices: gratitude, mindfulness, and self-compassion. Soothing self-care supplies will also be provided.
