In this episode, we hear from Beth Cavenaugh, a certified Hospice and palliative care nurse with over 25 years of experience, about her new book, The Power and Pain of Nursing: Self-Care Practices to Protect and Replenish Compassion. Cavenaugh discusses her collaborators, the philosophy behind her book, and why self-care and mental wellness practices are essential for maintaining a compassionate mindset in healthcare. She also talks about the importance of positivity, the stigma around self-care, and the impact of being a compassionate practitioner on patients.
