Values in Healthcare Series: Compassionate Care for the Self and the Patient

Compassion brings humanity to healthcare. It is the expression of our innate qualities of patience, generosity and kindness toward the self and the patient, yet there are often personal barriers to its expression – anger, anxiety, guilt and attachments. This module helps participants acknowledge and tackle these barriers and view compassion as a value they can consciously express throughout their practice, to alleviate burnout.
