Welcome to
Self-Care Academy
formerly
NurseFit®

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 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.

I LOVED meeting you and you gave our nurses
exactly what I was hoping for! ... I was so excited to tell others what we had
just been privileged to be a part of and shared your website with all of them.
You might be getting other calls for help --- I know you’ll be able to say no
when you need to so I didn’t hold back --- I raved!
The
real message of SELF care and
identifying our own needs came through
clearly and kindly. You did a beautiful
job of presenting reminders as well as
new information. None of us had heard of
“compassion
fatigue” but many of us have been
there. It has given us lots of food for
thought as well as a spring board for
conversations. I know many of us walked
out the room more in touch with why we
chose nursing than we have been for a
long time.
THANK
YOU, THANK YOU! It was truly wonderful
to meet you and I can’t thank you enough
for the perfect “Celebration of Nursing”
workshop!!!
