Sign up for this Friday’s healthcare workers summit

Sunday, June 5th, 2022

Healthcare workers are burned out and leaving their noble work – and the suicide rate in this demographic is alarming and a longstanding problem. We need to take care of our healthcare workers so they can take care of us! Let’s start healing together.

We in the Interprofessional Primary Care Institute invite you to join us for a continuing medical education course (CME), “Healthcare Worker Wellness Summit: From Demoralization to Remoralization in OUR Work,” via Zoom from 9 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. on Friday, June 10.

You will receive CME and strength through sharing stories and learning skills to bring back joy in our healthcare work.
