Health care providers are taught to put the needs of their patients first, to push through, to value achievement and excellence. It’s valued as a badge of honor to be chronically exhausted, selfless and have the capacity to go through a full day of work without eating or taking a bathroom break. This “health care culture” often comes at a cost which leaves health care workers exhausted, anxious and depressed when you struggle, when you hurt, when you can’t cope on your own, that you are failing especially at a time when the demands clearly exceed the resources (inner and outer). Dr. Joanisse, clinical and health psychologist, has put up a workbook for front-line health care providers to address their psychological well-being. This “Psychological First Aid for Frontline Health Care Providers during COVID19 ” – a quick guide to wellness aims to provide “one stop shop” serving health care workers as a stepping stone to comprehensive resources.
