On this special WOC Nurse Week edition of WOCTalk, we sit down with Dr. Carla Haack for a sneak preview of a rebroadcasted session titled “Mindfulness & the Healthcare Provider” that will take place tomorrow, Wednesday, April 14, 2021. The rebroadcasted webinar will offer 1 contact hour and is available for free to members and non-members of WOCN. This session will look at the neuroscience behind mindfulness exercises and how the practice can serve as a useful tool for preventing burnout and compassion fatigue in providers. There will also be some discussion regarding the prescription of these techniques for patients and their family members. Please visit wocn.org/wocnurseweek2021 for additional information about this topic and WOC Nurse Week 2021 resources and items to help you celebrate!
This podcast, the rebroadcasted webinar, and WOC Nurse Week 2021 are supported by an educational grant from Medela. The WOCN® Society does not endorse specific products and services.
