Strategies for Avoiding Burnout - June 5, 2019 at 3 PM EST
Webinar Wednesday
During a time that maternity care is in crisis, caring for ourselves as midwives is a way we can work towards the national goals of improving maternal health outcomes and growing the midwifery workforce. Healthcare provider well-being is empirically demonstrated to affect patient outcomes and the stability of the workforce. During this session, we will talk about different conditions that affect caregivers, especially midwives. We'll look at the research on midwifery burnout and specific elements of the practice environment that affect our well-being and the quality of care we provide to women and families. Finally, we will talk about strategies to address burnout on practice and personal levels.
