Safe Voicing for Employee Well-Being

Because of the intimate and intense life experiences that are part of daily encounters in nursing practice, nurses are especially subject to posttraumatic stress disorder and moral distress and are often affected by sustained exposure to trauma and difficult clinical situations that are life-altering to their patients and thus to themselves. Providing frontline clinical staff with safe and structured systems for voicing their experiences is an important part of fostering employee wellbeing. Debriefing the Front Lines is attempting to address these issues by offering an array of services and tools to assist organizations and individuals in navigating these complex needs.
