We have 3 excellent keynote speakers lined up for our Virtual Fall Conference October 5th – 8th.
Navigation in a Pandemic | Rev. Beth Long-Higgins
If 2020 were a road trip, we would all be asking, “are we there yet?” But like many journeys, how we live to tell the story depends on who accompanies us on the way, how we frame the challenges that arise and what we cite as the most valuable lessons learned. We will consider the journeys of others to help inspire our own energy for the road ahead.
Care for the Caregiver | Amy Siple, APRN, CNS, FNP, GS-C
Compassion fatigue has plagued many caregivers resulting in emotional and physical distress. This presentation will help participants identify personal areas of compassion satisfaction vs. compassion fatigue. We will discuss ways to create positivity and care for self.
“I Can’t Do This Much Longer!” Proven Strategies to Help You Cope with the Stress in Your Life Today| Dr. Paul White
Life in the long-term care world is beyond stressful. The words used to describe the level of exhaustion experienced from working in long-term care does not seem to catch the depth of fatigue that administrators, supervisors and front-line providers are feeling. Is there any hope? (Yes, some.) Is there anything that can be done to help us survive? (Yes, absolutely.) Learn some evidenced-based strategies and tools that can help you and your colleagues, even when you feel like you’ve “given all you’ve got” and you don’t have anything left.
