R.I.S.E. Groups
Every day, team members face the risk of adverse events. Adverse and traumatic experiences often increase feelings of self-doubt and burnout, which can hinder our ability to deliver safe, compassionate care. Modeled on literature from the R.I.S.E. Team at Johns Hopkins Hospital, we provide groups with skilled, non-judgmental, and confidential emotional support.
Research demonstrates that psychological debriefing immediately after an adverse event can actually worsen distress and increase risk for developing trauma symptoms over time. We recommend holding a R.I.S.E. group approximately 3-7 days after an event occurs and allowing team members space to utilize their preferred mechanisms for coping immediately after a stressful event occurs.

Speaking Engagements
Our team has worked with many groups across the hospital system. We can come to your site (or present virtually) and provide a presentation for your team. Past topics have included micro-skills for managing stress at work, work-life integration, managing grief and loss as a healthcare professional, and more.
