This complimentary course component allows clinicians who have taken the course, the opportunity to easily deliver a Physician and Health Professional Well-being workshop within their own institutions and organizations. It includes training and workbook materials needed to deliver workshops of various lengths.
The aims of the Train-the-Trainer program workshop are: 1) to help health professionals learn ways to maintain and improve their physical and emotional well-being, manage their stress levels, and achieve flourishing and 2) to inspire physicians and health professionals to apply these lessons with their patients.
We hope that after taking the course, you feel empowered to not only apply the self-care principals that are outlined within the course, but to also share this valuable information with the clinicians in your organization.
