The Wellbeing at Work program was originally developed for (junior) doctors but can be tailored to a variety of workplace settings. Contact us if you would like to discuss options.
Wellbeing at Work focuses on developing practical, evidence-based wellbeing techniques. These techniques are based on strategies developed in Positive Psychology, (Cognitive) Behavioural Techniques, Acceptance and Commitment, Compassion Focused and Trauma Informed Stress Management theories, including practical mindfulness strategies.
There is a focus on managing interpersonal relationships, navigating difficult scenarios, identifying common and/or personal barriers for self-care and asking for help, and overcoming these barriers.
A variety of resources, specifically designed for doctors are presented and discussed. It is well documented that a high level of wellbeing can enhance a person’s leadership and improve their engagement with peers and other professionals, ultimately enhancing the quality of patient care.
Wellbeing at Work promotes healthier doctors which can lead to healthier patients.
PROGRAM FORMAT AND DELIVERY MODE:
The program is delivered in-person via 2 x 90-minute workshops with a week or two between each session to allow for practicing of strategies that were covered in the first session. Some groups requested 3 x 90-minute sessions or a single three-hour session that can be tailored to suit the needs of a group.
