Each discipline within the veterinary profession has its own challenges that result in stress related to the emotional, physical and cognitive energy we invest in our work.
Join us in this free career webinar with Dr. Carrie La Jeunesse as she introduces the concept of compassion fatigue and caregiver reactions. This webinar provides some basic coping strategies, self-assessments and resources that can help us recognize problems, support ourselves and those with whom we work, and incorporate our professional lives into the whole of a healthy, balanced and satisfying life. Left unaddressed, accumulated stressors can adversely impact professional functioning and contribute to ethical lapses.
From companion animal practice to public health, lab animal medicine to academia, no one is exempt from the risks associated with compassion stress. Dr. La Jeunesse helps to dispel myths and remove the stigma around normal, expected, and unavoidable reactions related to working in a "helping" profession.
