Can Patients Survive a Trip to our Healthcare Facility?
|
|
|
In the days of Social Media, Facebook, TikTok, LinkedIn and other internet platforms, there are many communities where the professional’s “dirty laundry” is aired. We are overworked, underpaid, abused, and changed by the Covid Pandemic. Yet, there are many professionals really sacrificing and caring about their patients. I am not sure that we fully understand the impact that we have on our patients lives and family. Particularly, as our patients get older.

How is Your Mental Health, Health Care Worker?
|
|
|
Most of the time we know more about how much battery is left in our phones than we know about our personal battery. I wrote that in an AHEC blog some time back. My, how times have changed and how much more we are experiencing in personal battery failure. I spent some time on social media this morning with my coffee and was concerned at the reporting of physical aches and pains from health care workers. Some of this can obviously be blamed on the effects of Covid fatigue as our psychological health is directly tied to our physical health. I don’t know anyone in health care that is not sufferings from burnout and compassion fatigue.
