Taking Care of Employees

As Human Service practitioners, employees are challenged daily with the task of helping customers reach their parenting, family, and personal goals. While helping is the objective of our work, managing our own mental health and physical health as well as our lives, the overall task can be exasperating. 

This training is  designed to  introduce employees to the concept of Compassion Fatigue, its prevalence, how to recognize the signs, and methods to recovery. 

   One of the main symptoms of Compassion Fatigue is emotional & physical exhaustion resulting from caring for others without adequate self-care. Human Service practitioners can struggle with self-care because they tend to focus on other people’s needs, often at their own expense. Learning to develop and prioritize self-care is essential in preventing and combating Compassion Fatigue. 

 This training is designed to empower human service professionals to cultivate lasting self-care habits that nurture their physical and mental well-being, fueling personal growth and professional resilience. 

In Human Service, effective stress management can be related to job performance. Understanding the impact stress has on one’s life can support employees becoming healthier, happier, and more productive. 

This training is designed to make participants aware of the importance of managing stress as a part of being healthy, and to effectually identify stress and some of its causes. 

 Corporate wellness programs are designed to support and encourage   a holistic approach to employee wellbeing by creating an organizational   culture of health.
