Wave after wave and month end after month end health care workers are called upon to be kind, empathetic and compassionate to their patients. We often give all that we can emotionally and physically to our patients while taking little to no time to care for ourselves. 

In this exciting new episode we explore care giver fatigue and that horrible feeling you get when you suddenly realise that you are so emotionally drained you are starting to feel numb to your patients' pain.

 We also explore self-care which has become a buzz word and almost an expectation and chore . We therefore, explore what self-care really is and how you can find it for yourself in order to combat compassion fatigue.
