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.

She is a medical doctor and Senior Atlantic Fellow  with a passion for public health and improving health equity. "The quiet implosion"is a documentary she created to share the stories of doctors in our public health system in order to raise awareness about the struggles they face and the burden it has taken on their mental health and personal relationships.

As Health Care Workers we rush from an unsuccessful resuscitation filled with what ifs and sadness to the joy of finally discharging a patient who at a point was critically ill. We rush from the never ending ques of out patient clinics to the gasping Covid patients and then finally to the relief of home with food and sleep . This roller-coaster of emotions is never ending and on no sleep , an empty tummy  and full bladder it often seems hard to be kind and empathetic to our patients. Without a doubt we want to be but somehow it just seems so difficult at 2 am.

If this sounds familiar to you than this episode is perfect for you. With our guest Ariel we explore what social emotional learning is and how we as health care workers can give empathy to our patients but also our colleagues and more than that how we can give compassion to ourselves.
