A Guide to Compassionate Healthcare

How to Develop Resilience and Wellbeing in Today's Stressful Environment

About this book

A Guide to Compassionate Healthcare looks at how to maintain wellbeing in today's challenging healthcare environments, enabling practitioners to make a positive difference to the care environment whilst providing compassionate care to patients.

This practical guide focuses on strategies to maintain health and wellbeing as health care practitioners, in relation to stress management, resilience and positivity. Health and social care practitioners have been challenged over and above anything they have faced before due to the Covid pandemic. These situations have caused extreme trauma and stress to patients, their loved ones and those who have been struggling to care for them. The book highlights why resilience and good stress management are crucial, and how they can be achieved through a focus on wellbeing and positivity, referring to her RESPECT toolkit: Resilience, Emotional intelligence, Stress management, Positivity, Energy and motivation, Challenge and Team leadership.

This is essential reading for all those working in healthcare today who are passionate about compassionate care and want to ensure that they remain positive and well, particularly newly qualified staff.
