In this interactive workshop, we will explore the topic of resilience for caregivers and professionals, with a focus on those serving older adults. The presentation will examine current research amid the COVID-19 pandemic and will include new strategies and tools for improving individual capacities to monitor and address symptoms of compassion fatigue and burnout. We will “get real” about self-care and wellness by exploring individual and systemic barriers to balancing demanding caregiving roles with the many stressors present during the past two years. We will discuss the value of community and social networks in supporting resilience, and each participant will create a concrete, personalized plan for incorporating wellness strategies within their personal and professional lives. Through discussion, video clips, and brief mindfulness activities, participants will engage in an interactive dialogue about prioritizing self-care and resilience in the real world.
