I’d like to remind you and ask you to share with your members, this opportunity for learning.
Dear AFT Nurses and Health Professionals Leaders and Members,
The COVID-19 pandemic has laid out to bare the health inequities for people of color more than in any recent times. At the same time, nurses and healthcare workers have been working in stressful and unsafe conditions throughout the pandemic—traumatic experiences which can lead to depression and anxiety. For black and brown nurses and healthcare workers, the intersection of racism and traumatic work experiences can mean heightened overwhelm and anxiety.
Please join us for a webinar discussion specifically for healthcare workers led by licensed clinical psychologist, L. Kevin Chapman, Ph.D., A-CBT, HSPP, and moderated by Alexis Rean-Walker, Secretary-Treasurer of Health Professionals and Allied Employees in New Jersey and member of the AFT NHP Health Equity workgroup. Attendees will have the opportunity to share their experiences; learn the components of emotions and how to identify triggers to emotional experiences; and will learn tools and strategies to assist in coping.
One nursing continuing education contact hour will be provided- only to AFT member attendees.
