Empathy Without Burnout
Location
About
This is an interactive workshop, and is 90 minutes in duration.
Allied health professionals, first responders, teachers and others who care for a living, are usually naturally empathic people. However, we increasingly read about the high incidence of compassion fatigue and burn-out as consequences of the demands of these caring professions. This interactive workshop will introduce you, as a student, to the science of empathy and hands-on strategies to maintain and safeguard your ability to empathise while maintaining your wellbeing in the face of challenging emotional demands.
