As our company has evolved to include more
participants than nurses, we have changed our name from
NurseFit to Self-Care Academy. We understand that each
employee contributes to quality patient care by managing
their own self-care. We are now delighted to offer our
on-site program to all who wish to participate.
Overview
Healthcare is a complex environment that is ever changing.
Each employee has the responsibility to create a healing
environment for the patient, yet sometimes the stress and
emotional overload may be overwhelming, leading to
Compassion Fatigue. The
cost of Compassion Fatigue to hospitals is high and directly
impacts employee satisfaction and patient satisfaction with
high turnover rates, disengaged employees and potential
errors.
Healing ourselves is
pivotal to healing others.
Self-Care Academy is a comprehensive and sustainable
program that addresses the employees’ physical, emotional
and mental needs, focusing on making self-care a priority,
allowing them to continue to give their best to others.
Self-Care Academy teaches a new skill set for stress
reduction, self management and empowerment, and offers
practical applications of self-care, improving engagement
and reigniting the care-giving spirit.
The Self-Care Academy program consists of:
Monthly coaching sessions to support
lasting changes in self care behavior
Onsite, convenient yoga classes easily
adaptable to all fitness levels
Onsite, convenient meditation classes
Proven stress reduction techniques
Inspirational monthly newsletters
Incentivized participation
Social media networking
Experience the benefits of reducing stress
and Compassion Fatigue. Implement Self-Care Academy into
your organization to improve employee satisfaction, patient
satisfaction and retain re-energized, engaged and highly
effective employees.
Reignite the care-giving
spirit!

My new friend, Janina, talking about the
importance of self care in her life. Janina is an incredible
inspiration and a driving force for positive change in the
nursing profession! She also was a finalist in "Britian's
Got Talent" and blessed us with her powerful talent by
singing, You'll Never Walk Alone... Wow! Amazing! Her
compassion for quality patient care is inspirational to all
who know her.
"As nurses, it is mandatory that we place our self-care as a
priority in our own lives. We have to release the emotional residue that builds
up over the years or we will surely suffer from Compassion Fatigue and lack the
passion and stamina to care for those who depend on us."
