Application Deadline: CARE Training for UW Medicine Employees
March 27, 2021 @ 8:00 am - 5:00 pm
The Whole U is offering a free, self-paced virtual course developed to reduce burnout and increase well-being and self-compassion for 200 UW Medicine front-line healthcare workers who identify as female.
CARE, a course developed by Jane Compson, PhD, associate professor in the UW Politics, Philosophy and Public Affairs Division, provides training in compassion, awareness, resilience and empowerment with the specific goal of protecting against burnout. It creates an accessible portal into self-care practices and is developed to synthesize the bewildering array of resources available to us around self-care and well-being.
Participants will:
- Learn tools and practices to develop self-care literacy and protect against or reduce burnout.
- Increase self-compassion and empowerment.
- Join a supportive group environment to learn and practice self-care skills, sharing in your experience as front-line healthcare working women.
The application deadline is March 27 at 5 p.m. The eight-week course will run April 5 to May 28.
