Stress to Strength

Are stress and burnout easy to recognize or do you only notice them in hindsight? And if you do recognize them, what do you do? Dwight Bain, a Nationally Certified Counselor in Florida, speaks to you in this short video, Stress to Strength, about how to recognize when you’re reaching your limit and how you can help yourself once you realize what’s going on.

Whether stress and burnout are caused by the strain of patient loads, difficult work environments or just a heap of little things, we have to start by being our own advocates. We nurses have to take care of ourselves before we can take care of those who need us.

You can see these and many other videos we’ve found for nurses on our YouTube channel at http://www.youtube.com/scrubsmagazine
