SESSION OVERVIEW

Practice Spotlight: Reclaim Your Energy - Burnout Recovery Strategies 

As we fast approach the end of 2024, it is time to take a moment to reflect and plan what you can do to reclaim your energy and start 2025 off how you wish to go forward. 

We know the challenges of burnout are ever present for many OTs with the ongoing workload demands, client complexities and staff shortages but there are strategies you can put into place to support you as you navigate a path that works for you and allows you to reclaim your energy.  Hear from occupational therapist, Nicole de la Perrelle as she shares her experience of how she has done just that. 

This session will support participants to develop practical skills and strategies to manage and prevent burnout and compassion fatigue. Recognising, addressing and managing burnout are important to having balance in your life, job satisfaction and career longevity.
