Professional Boundaries: Building Resilience and Minimizing Burnout

July 13, 2023

Gaps in differential diagnostic information regarding stress, anxiety and burnout may impede the ability of social workers to appropriately refer patients/clients to adequate resources within the community. Further, siloed community services result in lack of working knowledge of services available within the behavioral health spaces. The impact of these knowledge gaps results in unclear or inconsistent communication with patients/clients which affects treatment outcomes.

Attendees will be given tools and resources to engage with interprofessional team members in addition to clients/patients. Evidence-Based tools will be used to provide resources for care planning that incorporates holistic assessment of client needs. These tools will allow attendees to engage more effectively within their teams.
