Show Notes
With the increased distress and rationing of care that arose during the COVID-19 pandemic, the topic of Moral Injury (MI) has started to garner much more attention in the world of healthcare. This repeated conflict between an individual’s morality and the management of care causes a deep emotional wound that often drives workers out of the profession altogether. Jerry Hogan, DNSc, CRNA wrote an article about this subject, so we’ve asked him to explain the effects of MI and how CRNAs can resolve this conflict.
Here are some of the things you’ll learn on this show:
- How moral injury was first identified and the impact it has on nurses. (4:47)
- Second victim vs Moral Injury (12:38)
- What to do if you start to feel this? (18:45)
- The effects of COVID on MI (21:50)
- Can you step away from a situation you aren’t morally comfortable with? (27:40)
- Resources are available for anyone dealing with MI. (34:39)
