ForwardWebinar: Self-Care Is Not Selfish: How to Put Out the Burnout
Health care professionals, including RDs and social workers (SW), can be so busy caring for others that they often forget to take time to care for themselves. This may cause them to miss signs that their patients may be dealing with significant stress as well, leading to greater health concerns and worsening conditions. Stress levels among health care clinicians are at an all-time high, leading to an exhausted and burned-out care team. And research shows that untreated stress and burnout can have negative consequences on physical and mental health.1
Join Mandy Enright, MS, RDN, RYT, and Lauren Luppino, LCSW, on Wednesday, October 23, 2024, from 2-3:30 p.m. ET, for a webinar that will review the key roles RDs and SWs play in positive patient care as they discuss the difference between stress and burnout. Mandy and Lauren will provide tools the interprofessional team can implement to not only work collaboratively to optimize patient care, but do so while avoiding and even extinguishing burnout. Not only will you be able to start implementing your own self-care routine, but you will also learn skills that can be incorporated into your daily practice with clients.
Learning Objectives
After completing this continuing education activity, health care professionals will better be able to:
- Discuss roles of the RD and social worker (SW) as individual practitioners as well as members of the care team.
- Define stress, burnout, and self-care and recognize each condition’s symptoms.
- Identify why RDs and SWs may be more prone to experiencing stress and burnout.
- Incorporate self-care practices personally and professionally.
- Implement interprofessional principles that support the patient’s use of self-care practices for improved health outcomes.
