Employee wellness is a hot topic, but what is it? When you think of employee wellness terms like the following may come to mind: Compassion Fatigue, Burnout and Suicide Awareness. While Veterinarians tend to get the most “attention” around these topics, they affect everyone in any veterinary position. The first step in diagnosing and treating any condition, just like in veterinary patients, is understanding what exactly something is. What is Compassion Fatigue? How is it different than burnout? What can be done to anticipate and manage how our industry impacts us on a psychological and physical level? All of these things and more will be answered in this engaging session. Self-care is at the center of surviving this industry. In the words of your friendly flight attendants: “please ensure you secure your own oxygen mask, before helping those around you secure theirs”.
