Health for Health Care Professionals: Promoting and Participating in Healthy Teams

Building from our first workshop, this session will focus on characteristics of well-functioning health care teams. As health care professionals we are frequently presented with patients, colleagues, or friends and family members who are in crisis and in need of support. This workshop provides participants with basic knowledge about how to support behavioral health for yourself and others. These skills can influence healthy team growth and culture change in a direction that is consistent with a larger mission. Participants will learn strategies on how to best help others while also being mindful of and compassionate towards themselves and their own wellness. This will also include crisis management and de-escalation skills to help effectively engage with colleagues who are struggling, communication tips, and development of core values to inform difficult decision making and address challenging issues.

The webinar will be recorded and there will be live ASL interpretation. We are offering free continuing education for nurses, medical assistants, pharmacists and pharmacy technicians.

The learning objectives for this webinar are to:

1. Identify opportunities to engage in crisis support and healthy communication with other team members.
2. Develop understanding and familiarity with collegial supportive best practices.
3. Identify and use core values to inform responses and behaviors.
