Care-giving is exhausting. Care-giving for those that have experienced trauma, even more so. The Compassionate Care course will discuss the concepts of compassion fatigue/caregiver burnout, means of recovery and methods of prevention when possible. Most importantly, this course will provide a foundation for recognizing caregiver burnout in yourself and effect strategies for self care, as well as how to find the time to implement them. Not only is this class applicable for caregivers, but also those in any form of helping profession (social work, healthcare, education etc.).
