Caring for the Caregivers: Nurse Burnout Chat with Saloumeh Bozorgzadeh, PsyD


Listen Later

In this episode, Adrianne welcomes clinical psychologist and president of the Sufi Psychological Association, Saloumeh Bozorgzadeh PsyD to discuss the current burnout nurses are facing and how she and her organization have responded to this problem.

This is the part of this pandemic where many healthcare workers are maxed out and suffering from exhaustion. Many may not notice the symptoms in themselves because so many are just keeping afloat in the day-to-day. It may be easier to recognize it in each other and that’s exactly what Saloumeh saw.

She was noticing a kind of shellshock among hospital nurses and wanted to bring something to them to combat the effects of overwhelming stress, the witness of suffering, and overwork due to short staffing. But it had to be there in the moment, in the hospital, with no pressure on them to go home and have yet something else to do.

Thus Caring 4 Our Caregivers Initiative came to be. Please enjoy this episode where they discuss:

- the Initiative and its grassroots beginnings
- the delayed effects of pandemic stress on nurses
- the how tablets became the vehicle for stress relief
- the study regarding spirituality-integrated psychology
- how this initiative spread to hospitals nationwide
- the scientific evidence of these modalities
