Supporting the Pharmacy Workforce during COVID-19: An Introduction to Critical Incident Stress Management

ASHP has been committed to supporting the well-being and resilience of the pharmacy workforce for decades. We’ve been even more focused on supporting members the last few years given recent evidence and impact of burnout on patient safety and the healthcare workforce. During COVID-19, demands and stress on the pharmacy workforce have increased to an even greater extent. This podcast will introduce the concept of Critical Incident Stress Management (CISM) and will identify resources and tools available to apply CISM components to individual wellness and in preparing for crisis support.  For more information on CISM, please see the full webinar recording at ASHP elearning.org.
