DAUK is hosting two upcoming webinars which are FREE for our members.

The first webinar is on managing the emotional aftermath of adverse medical incidents.

Adverse incidents in medicine can leave doctors with a range of difficult emotions including feeling anxious and guilty.

They can impact the way doctors work and contribute to low satisfaction.

Free webinar

The webinar takes place on Tuesday 10 June from 7.30pm to 8.30pm.

It will be held by Dr Claire Davies, a GP and accredited coach, who works with doctors on managing stress, preventing burnout, and making their careers enjoyable again.

Dr Davies is the author of the book First Aid for Doctors with Burnout and a contributor to Pulse, Medscape and the BMJ.

Her talk aims to help doctors understand:

  • Why they feel the way they do
  • What we often get wrong in terms of supporting ourselves and others
  • What really helps
  • How to offer great and effective support as a colleague.

It is free to DAUK members and £6.13 to non-members.

Book your place here.

Compassion fatigue

The second webinar is on compassion fatigue.

Compassion fatigue, often referred to as the ‘cost of caring’, is a state of emotional and physical exhaustion resulting from prolonged exposure to the suffering of others.

The webinar will be hosted by Jayne Ellis, founder and CEO of EF training, who has experienced compassion fatigue herself.

She will talk about it and how to mitigate its effects.

The webinar will be held on Wednesday 25 June from 7.30pm to 8.30pm.

It is free to DAUK members, and costs £5 for non-members.
