Have you noticed a decline in your empathic abilities from repeated exposure to others' suffering? You could be experiencing compassion fatigue if you feel:

Exhausted — Giving 110% every single day isn't sustainable. And with fewer nurses on staff to care for more (and sicker) patients, it can feel like there aren't enough hours in the day to give yourself time to rest and recover.

Frustrated — It can seem hopeless going above and beyond, day in and day out, for a community — or organization — that is not extending the same courtesy to you, by not prioritizing your needs or doing the bare minimum to help care for themselves.

Depressed — When you've spent your entire life trying to help others, it can be overwhelming to feel like you've stopped caring about people. But as an act of self-preservation, it can feel easier to distance yourself from your patients than it would be to invest what little you have left into someone else. Then comes the guilt of putting yourself before your patients.

Afraid — What do these feelings mean for your career? For your identity as a nurse? Will you have to walk away from your passion in order to save yourself? Is there ANYONE out there who can help? What does this mean for the future of healthcare?

This powerful training will provide you with the skills, tools, and techniques you need to manage the stress and emotional complexities unique to nursing. You will be empowered to overcome career-threatening burnout and regain your purpose and passion for the critical work you are entrusted to provide.

As more burned-out nurses leave the profession, there are fewer clinicians left to pick up the pieces. Healthcare providers suffering from compassion fatigue may demonstrate poor judgement, make errors, have less than desirable interactions with patients, decreased discernment, and declining quality of care.

This enlightening training will demonstrate how to overcome this crisis, adding hours to your days by arming you with tools for combating burnout, disorganization, stress, and fatigue.

This Compassion Fatigue Certification Training is what you need to set the standard of a healthy life/work balance and will be a resource you keep in your toolbox throughout your career — regardless of setting or specialty.

Whether you're seeking new evidence-based interventions to prevent burnout, effective time management strategies, or simply refuge in a community of fellow, over-extended nurses, this self-study course provides superior training around your own schedule.

This course may be right for you if you are a registered nurse, nurse practitioner, clinical nurse specialist, physician assistant, physician, physical therapist or PTA, occupational therapist or OTA, case manager, nursing home administrator, or veterinarian.
