Who can benefit?

Anyone in a stressful workplace will find our sessions beneficial

You have chosen a profession where you can share your talents and skills. You have invested a great deal of time, energy, and funds in fulfilling that responsibility. How do you ensure you will maintain the ability to carry out your role with the passion and commitment you have now, or once had?

 

Community Healthcare Consulting can provide tools and approaches to support your resilience, to care for yourself and to flourish in your field.
Regardless of your specific field, you and your peers will benefit from increasing your understanding of how the ongoing stressors and challenges you face can impact your work. Community Healthcare Consulting’s program can help you identify ways to manage this “baggage”. By being aware of our emotional and intellectual state, we will build resilience and protect against the impact work stress can have on us over time.  We need to be aware of the cumulative impact of work related stress on ourselves and others and how to manage it.

A Sample Pre-Set Session of 90 Minutes:

For individuals wishing to participate on their own, and not as part of an organizational team, shorter pre-set topics may be available.

During the fall of 2018, we are offering a series on Workplace Wellness on Friday afternoons from 2:30 pm to approximately 4 pm.

Although the sessions involve horses, there is no riding. Participants work with horses from the ground. Horses mirror our strengths and weaknesses and reflect back our challenges. From this information, we can learn how to manage workplace stress more effectively and efficiently. Solid footwear is required for all sessions:

Some of what past participants have stated about Community Healthcare Consulting Programs include:

“I really enjoyed this day both personally and professionally. Growth for me happened on many levels – awareness, perception, projecting openness, and dealing with personal anxieties – very little time around horses. During the course of the day our group developed as a team and the tasks assisted in creating more synergy, and trust.”

-Wendy Graham, Registered Psychotherapist

“increased awareness of time needed to enter into another’s space and to present myself while leaving room to honour their space”
