SAPC Quarterly Lecture Series – What About You? Practicing Self-Care for Substance Use Disorder Providers – Part Two

Description: 

Early indicators of increasing burnout among healthcare professionals and the general population during the COVID-19 pandemic add a challenging facet to the difficulty of engaging in regular self-care. Considerations for enhancing mental, behavioral, and physical health with intentional integration into daily activities can enhance provider functioning with parallel benefits of organizational support and individual opportunities for enhanced well-being.  
The second part of this Self-Care lecture series will provide participants with updated information on the need for self-care within a professional and individual context. Information will focus on expanding upon previously developed concepts of burnout and methods for maintaining motivation for self-care among health professionals while incorporating recommendations for managing the challenges of a shifting substance use disorder treatment landscape. Participants will have opportunities to consider practical ways to enhance physical, emotional, and behavioral self-care practices through interactive activities, discussions, and identification of resources for continued self-care practice beyond the session.  

Objectives: At the end of this presentation, participants will be able to: 

1)    Recognize two (2) impacts on the physical and mental well-being of health professionals that result from physical distancing.
2)    Apply three (3) cognitive or affective coping mechanisms to manage daily stressors from within the SUD workplace.
