Protecting Health Worker Mental Health: A Call-to-Action Webinar
Online Only , United StatesHealth workers face many challenges as part of their work, such as long work hours, rotating and irregular shifts, exposure to human suffering and death, and increased risks for exposure to disease and other harms. The COVID-19 pandemic has intensified these challenges and contributed to worsening mental health. Some of the concerns include burnout, distress, compassion fatigue, depression, anxiety, substance use disorders, and suicidal ideation. These can impact the overall health and well-being of workers and may impact job performance, patient care, and safety.
As part of the American Rescue Plan of 2021, CDC NIOSH received Congressional funding to deliver a national awareness and education campaign to protect and improve the mental health of health workers. As we begin this effort, we invite experts from across the nation to this call-to-action forum to discuss this critical topic.

CBHL Member Leadership Conversation | Understanding and Addressing Workforce Burnout Through the Pandemic
The resurgence of COVID-19 due to the Delta and Omicron variants continues to strain our healthcare, and behavioral health workforce. Changing workflows, increased workload, fear of illness, and job insecurity all contribute to burnout. Behavioral health providers are pushed to the limits of their mental, emotional, and professional bandwidth with no signs of reprieve. Support and administrative staff are taking on new responsibilities and are more frequently isolated from coworkers. As the demand for mental health services remains high, the impact to our workforce continues to grow.
