WEBINAR DETAILS
Providing counseling and support to people in need
is what social workers and chaplains do for a living, right? Shouldn’t that
include co-workers and volunteers? The answer is both “yes” and “no,” because
of legal and ethical challenges. This webinar will explore options for
providing support to both staff and volunteers. Hospice work can be stressful
and depleting, especially during end-of-life care – and the COVID-19 health
crisis has intensified it. Many people are experiencing “COVID fatigue” on top
of normal job stressors and caregiver burnout. Learn how social workers and
chaplains can assist in ways that are legal, ethical, and reasonable.
