Emotional Intelligence for Healthcare Professionals

You see so much. You feel so deeply. The weight of these emotions sometimes is too much.

Remaining detached from your work and emotions, doesn’t seem to be the answer.

But what is?

EI is the capacity to be aware of, control, and express one’s emotions. Equally important is the ability to handle interpersonal relationships judiciously and empathetically.

Above all else, emotional intelligence is about being able to understand and control your own emotions in positive ways. This allows you relieve stress, communicate, empathize, overcome challenges, and reduce conflict.

Creating health and ongoing wellness also occurs when we understand the importance of emotions and how they affect the body.

As leaders in healthcare, it is of the utmost importance to utilize and apply the techniques of emotional intelligence (EI).

Healthcare professionals must successfully communicate and acknowledge the emotional needs of all those involved in treatment. That's why EI is so important to nurses, doctors, and all other healthcare workers.

To recognize others' emotions, you need to first recognize your own.

Through this course, healthcare professionals will:

• Understand and know how to put feelings into words.

• Learn how to feel safe enough to articulate emotional needs on an emotional level

• Recognize when these ignored emotions are causing physical dis-ease.

• Increase physical and emotional health.

• See success in their lives by reducing burnout.

Emotions affect everything.
