WS Promoting Healthy Nurses: Personal Tools to Build Global Nursing Communities

Friday, October 30, 2009: 12:00 PM-4:00 PM
Description/Overview: The nursing profession is one of the most recognized groups of professionals around the world noted for their devoted service. To maintain the best quality of service, however, nurses need to balance patient care with self-care. This presentation highlights the importance of self care, and the problems associated with the lack of self care (burnout). To ensure the best global nursing community through the promotion of self care, this presentation will include: the nature of stress, the quadrants of holistic wellness (mind, body, spirit and emotions), signs of mismanaged anger, the relationship between stress and physical health, health of the human spirit, and several ageless coping skills and relaxation techniques proven to help restore one’s personal energy levels. Leave inspired, rested and rejuvenated with skills that can be integrated into both your personal life and professional career.
Learner Objective #1: Identify six ways to creatively manage anger
Learner Objective #2: Demonstrate three coping/relaxation techniques for personal homeostasis
