Preventing Burnout As A New Nurse Practitioner: Interview with a Self-Care Strategist


Listen Later

Burnout is a hot topic in all aspects of healthcare. You might be thinking that it’s something that affects other people. You might think it’s something that impacts Nurse Practitioners who are more established in their careers. You might think it’s one of the last things that you need to think about as a new grad Nurse Practitioner. Until you start to experience symptoms of burnout. 


This week, we are talking with Diana from Catalyst for Self Care. She’s a well-seasoned Nurse Practitioner and a self-care strategist. What makes her an expert? Because she also has experienced burnout as a Nurse Practitioner. In this interview, we will cover:


  • Recognizing the signs and symptoms of burnout
  • The benefits of addressing burnout
  • Resources for preventing, assessing, and/or managing your burnout
  • The importance of regular reflection as a part of your practice as a Nurse Practitioner
  • Self-care and why it is so important


Learning about burnout sometimes happens the hard way, but it doesn’t have to. Watch this interview and get tips that you can start using right away. Understand what boundaries are, how to define yours, and why they are so vital to preventing and treating burnout. Self-care can mean a lot of things and is very unique to each of us. One thing is universal: we need to identify what works for us in a constructive way and make a plan to implement it for ourselves. When we care for ourselves, we can take the best care of our patients.  


If you know a colleague who is being stretched really thin, suggest this interview.
