Mental Health for Healthcare Workers | Simon Sinek
Everyday, healthcare workers demonstrate what it means to truly take care of others. But we can’t forget that we need to take care of them too. We need to be there for each other and be able to ask for help…because together is better.

Already losing too many good ones
Prawdziwych przyjaciół poznajemy w biedzie.
To stare powiedzenie jak najbardziej znajduje swoje potwierdzenie w realnym życiu .
Przekonałam się o tym niejednokrotnie osobiście jak i na przykładzie innych ludzi .
Strong point Simon 🤙
Establishing short routines into the daily work cycles are essential for this. Everywhere, not just healthcare 🙏
And groups can actually build strong connections and bonds that produce oxytocin and alleviate stress in just 15 minutes ✌️
And Yes, digital works beautifully. So let’s get started I’d say 👊
I am in nursing… and our hospital is first and foremost run as a bussines. It just happens to be in healthcare, so "we" make all the right sounds and have all the admin in order. Then get down (we are not seen as equals….. this is anyway how we experience it) to nursing. We are understaffed and they keep coming up with more formulas to justify less staf per patient. What they do not acknowledge, is that we are humans, not numbers. You cannot cut us in halves or quarters and expect us to give the same quality of work. And the past 2yr it even got worse….. work ourselves to exhaustion and as soon as we have a so called vaccine and make a choice to not have it, we are crap. No new staff come on board…. all are exhausted…. and the pressure is turned on from all sides: work and give away your freedom to choose. I've never been sick the past 2yrs, but I was burnt out. My jabbed colleagues got sick, still, and I cover for them. Yesterday I was booked off for acute anxiety disorder….. it is not strange. Yet the mill keeps on milling to create money for the bussiness associates or shareholders It is sickening!!!!
👍👍👍👍
As long as a shame based childhoods continue. Man will never be at peace.
Totally agree. Thank you.
👏🏽
For all healthcare personnel. People generally think of doctors and nurses however, respiratory therapists, imaging technologists play a huge role in detection and recovery. They are as exposed to covid patients, they are front line and follow-up staff. To admit that we need care ourselves is taboo as a healthcare practitioner. To fall ill is equal to failing our patients and our team. The culture has to change in order to get the care we need. I absolutely agree. I have voiced this concern and now find that others are following my lead and admitting, although still as a whisper, that we could use some help. Real leaders recognize their own limits and voice it for the team before they reach unrecoverable stages. I hear the initial judgment but I'm not concerned about it. Let's all get well. 😊
Gratitude for sharing Simon! 🙂
You are spot on about the culture of health care. Mistrust is huge and we are afraid to use these so called "mental health resources". You may not realize this, but working in health care requires staff to seek care within their own system (seeing a provider in another system is considered out of network). Our coworkers have access to our charts when we seek care from an in network provider. I would NEVER use a mental health resource provided by my own employer.
I have used a MH support service at my work here in Australia, but it was only limited to ability to cope with work and what surrounded that stress. I was advised to seek another service for more personal issues. It was helpful but not comprehensive
1:25 but these days you can't voice the struggles, well you can but need to know that diversity is present and you might be fall short on it
S/S. Mental healthcare has no place in business, which is why Hospitals aren't businesses or vocational welfare states ! One has to appreciate the assistance for oneself, otherwise we are totally unable to assist anyone in general society ? V.
The pandemic has really opened our eyes to valuing the ability to enjoy our ability to go where we wanted and how we lived carefree and now the health line workers are struggling to manage their health and job. We need to be gratitude 🙏 for them in our lives and how they are doing their best to help.
Love that! In homes for the elderly also, its very stressful too
I love your videos, they are all an Encyclopedia of knowledge thank you for being a part of our lives.
Please change the background ❤❌
So true!
To help those close to us rise, actually makes us more efficient and efficacious people. 💘
There should be a professional psychologist in the institutions where the companies have organizational charts to talk to the people working there. Companies should have psychology departments and a psychology chair, this is something i have been saying since my high school internships at a very young age and still want this to be provided in my current institution. I forwarded my request to our human resources, the idea made sense but was not implemented.
Are Doctors and Nurses the only people that matter in a hospital??? There is a whole network of people that make up a hospital. It just seems like such a class issue to only talk about them.
He gets it! I’m so happy I found this channel
Can't agree more with this. I work healthcare and it is very much needed.
There are EAP programs that nurses and doctors have access to as employees! They can receive counseling and referrals to receive the help they need??? They do have all the resources they need to be healthy!!
Thank you for allowing comments, allowing dialoge.
Most topics with something to hide do not allow commenting. Videos or articles. This is one of the few on medical worker suicides that allows comments.
When are we gonna get 2021 and 2022 data? Why is the USA so slow on death data from 2020 to 2022? Is it on purpose?
I think we gonna see troubling data for 2022. That is, if it's true data. In overall mortality (while the "pandemic" was over) but also medical worker suicides from the stress of what they went along with. There has to be great guilt in those that gave patients remdesivir and saw high rates of kidney and liver failure.
What about the stress of seeing your co-worker fired because they refused to take the experimental mRNA covid jabs? And they didn't stand up for their friends.
My friend worked at GBMC hospital for 16 years. That hospital was like a communist dictatorship to their employees. They wouldnt accept her religous exemption. They made life difgicult, requiring testing once a week, then twice a week. She is close friends with women in the clinical trials department, they informed her do NOT take these dangerous shots. They all held out as long as they could. All were forecibly fired. The trials women found another hospital to hire them. My friend now works a low pay secretary type job. But, she's healthly, which is really important cause she's raising a little girl.
My Pediatrician whom I've trusted for YEARS was recommending the Warp Speed jabs for my kids!!!!
WHAT!!!! 0.003 % chance of my kid getting sick and dying from covid and you want to inject them with a new technology jab that is liability free to the mfg and government?
Then all these kids getting myocarditis and Pericarditis and dropping dead from heart attacks. That mental weight on these doctors must be huge! I'm sure they must try to live in a false reality and try to deny it, in order to protect them mentally, but they can't hide it forever. They need to talk to someone, they need to ask for forgiveness. Most soldiers struggle with PTSD if they were part of an event that killed people. The ones that get away from the PTSD are the ones that break down and repent and confess. The ones that hide it are consumed by depression and sadness and often kill themselves.
Please consider addressing the wrongs of 2020 to 2022 and get back to good mental health. I wish you mental healing . 🙏
