About this event

Health care professionals can experience grief when caring for patients at or near end-of-life, especially if a patient has been under their care for a long time. While bereavement services are often times offered to a patient’s loved ones, frontline staff and caregivers are not always afforded this service. Additionally, those who care for others can experience chronic stress, leading to burnout and what is known as “compassion fatigue.”

Join us for a free educational webinar on coping with grief and compassion fatigue as a health care worker, led by Islands Hospice certified grief counselor, Sally Handley.

Skilled nursing facility and care home staff, home health staff, geriatric units, oncology units, and other types of medical staff and caregivers are invited to join this webinar to learn:

  • How to recognize grief and compassion fatigue in themselves and others.
  • The consequences for undetected or cumulative burnout and grief in health care settings.
  • Healthy mechanisms for coping with grief and compassion fatigue.
