Join Us to TALK - LISTEN -SHARE

This session will focus on "Turning the Other Cheek: Compassionate Care in the Face of Anger".

Virtual Schwartz Rounds (VSR) are remote convenings that take place online using a virtual meeting platform. They provide a forum for connecting with nursing colleagues facing challenging experiences while trying to care for themselves and others.

Sessions are opportunities to connect with one another about difficult or uplifting experiences, to offer and to receive support, and to decrease a sense of isolation. The goals of VSR are to support compassion for self and others, encourage mindful self-care, share coping strategies, and foster connection and community.

1. Describe the social, emotional, ethical, and personal issues that arise during the care of patients and their impact on caregivers.
2. Demonstrate enhanced communication with patients, family members and colleagues.
3. Value opportunities to explore and understand multiple perspectives across disciplines.
4. Value opportunities to provide and receive support from other members of our healthcare community.
5. Model for learners behaviors of nonjudgmental listening and respect.
