Hi Everyone! To wrap up Better Hearing and Speech Month, I wanted to pose a question regarding a topic that has gained momentum within the past couple of years - burn out and stress within the profession. Although we tend to provide support to graduate students in this area, there is limited information on how we can best assist SLPs and Audiologists in order to overcome burnout and stress in the workplace. Given the fact that efforts to improve better hearing and speech begin from within "US" and by taking care of "YOU", what advice do you have for practitioners in order to overcome burnout and stress? What has helped you in your own experience?
