The working environment of hospitals and healthcare institutions can have a strong impact on the psychological state of staff members, as they are exposed to death, terminal illnesses, depression and mental illnesses on a daily basis. On one hand healthcare professionals have to show empathy and understanding towards their patients and support them, on the other hand they need to put boundaries on their “emotional selves”. This inner conflict and the pressure of work has an impact on their mental health as well as on service provision.
The Life Transition Coaching Training teaches healthcare professionals invaluable self-management techniques to help them overcome their own issues and fears regarding aging and life transition. This training helps healthcare professionals to deal with the issues of loss, grief, aging and terminal illnesses by teaching tools and techniques for them to guide and accompany patients professionally through their life transition process.
The benefits of Life Transition Training include:
- Better understanding of the needs of patients, who are going through the process of life transition
- Improvement in service provision and patient satisfaction
- Improvement of self-management skills and of personal wellbeing
- Finding meaning and purpose in your role as a guide and caretaker
- Improvement in professional communication regarding difficult issues such as health and death
