We will learn the physical, emotional, and behavioral effects of fatigue. We will learn the cognitive and interpersonal effects of fatigue. We will learn ways to prevent compassion fatigue and restore energy. Compassion Fatigue is a combination of physical, emotional, and spiritual depletion associated with caring for people in significant pain and physical distress. We are proud of the professionals and the volunteers that follow their passion to help the lives of others. We appreciate their serviced and depend on their expertise. And with such responsibility comes rewards for caring and a cost for caring. Caring too much can hurt. We often forget that taking care of ourselves is an essential component to helping others. Acknowledging the occupational hazards of care giving is the first step toward preventing secondary traumatic stress.
