In this episode of Stories from the Field, we welcome Barb Schmal, Certified Hospice and Palliative Registered Nurse, as she reflects on the impact of compassion fatigue throughout her career-long journey. She shares with us the importance of reflecting on the individual strengths that allow us to continue to do this meaningful work of caring for patients and families with serious illness. Her message of being intentional in caring for yourself will speak to us as we share Barb’s journey of reflection in finding meaning and resilience in our chosen field of hospice and palliative nursing.
