Event Description
Your utmost priority is to take care of others, but what about yourself? When we focus on caring for family members or other loved ones, we often start to feel burn-out. Feelings of apathy, isolation and bottled up emotions and even substance abuse head a long list of symptoms associated with the secondary traumatic stress disorder now labeled: Compassion Fatigue.
Join us as elder care expert Lisa Doyle, RN, BSN, CMC, and founder of CayCare, breaks down the signs and how to combat Compassion Fatigue. While the effects of Compassion Fatigue can cause pain and suffering, learning to recognize and manage its symptoms is the first step toward healing.
Refreshments will be served.
