Let's Get Physical (Therapy)

Send us a text

Maria enthusiastically teaches us about the Stress First Aid continuum and how to best utilize it to optimize our wellbeing in the workplace. She describes the green, yellow, orange, red system and ways to implement this strategy in our clinics.

Maria also goes into a new way to look at burnout and how we can best advocate for ourselves and our wellbeing to reduce our risk of getting to that point.

To be the best clinician we can be, we must take care of ourselves first. Hopefully the Stress First Aid Tool can be useful for you to prioritize wellbeing and be more effective in how we show up to the workplace.
