Emerge Education, a leading education and workforce development solutions firm, has partnered with The Great Courses to launch a groundbreaking online course called “Resiliency in Modern Health Care.” This course aims to address stress and burnout among healthcare professionals and administrators by providing evidence-based stress management techniques and strategies grounded in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT).
With burnout rates soaring among healthcare workers worldwide, this collaboration comes at a critical time. A recent survey revealed that 77 percent of healthcare workers believe a crisis will occur within the next year due to understaffing and burnout, with one in three planning to leave their jobs. In response to this crisis, many healthcare employers are emphasizing better access to support systems and empowering individuals to prioritize mental wellness and resiliency.
The impact of this course extends beyond employee well-being, as it also offers substantial cost savings for healthcare providers and hospitals. By fostering a healthier and more supportive work environment, organizations can reduce high turnover rates and save millions of dollars annually on recruitment and training costs.
James Hunter, CEO of Emerge Education, expressed the company’s commitment to providing high-quality educational experiences that empower individuals to navigate life’s challenges with strength and resilience. Paul Suijk, CEO of The Great Courses, highlighted the partnership’s dedication to supporting healthcare workers on the front lines.
The “Resiliency in Modern Health Care” program offers flexible, self-paced learning modules designed to help participants build resilience, manage stress, and improve communication skills. This initiative aims to cultivate a resilient work culture in healthcare settings, ultimately enhancing patient care and improving employee well-being. Healthcare professionals can access the online course through the Emerge Education website.
