NurseLearn Speaker Series: “Why the Usual Wellness Advice isn’t Working-And What Might”

What’s really behind the stress nurses carry, and what can be done about it?

Join Dawne Schoenthal for a grounded, eye-opening session that explores five key occupational harms affecting nurses and caregivers today: compassion fatigue, moral and ethical misalignment, vicarious trauma, secondary trauma, and burnout. You’ll learn how to tell the difference between what’s manageable and what’s removable, and walk away with tools to respond, advocate, and feel less alone in what you’re experiencing.

1. Define and differentiate key occupational stress harms, including compassion fatigue, moral & ethical misalignment, vicarious trauma, secondary trauma, and burnout.
2. Describe systemic contributors to nurse distress in community-based care and adult foster home settings, and identify strategies for partnering with employers to foster healthier work environments.
3. Apply personal and professional tools for recognizing, responding to, and mitigating the impact of workplace trauma and stress.
