This CE session, presented by Adjunct Associate Professor Dr. Susan Scott, is sponsored by FNU’s Chi Pi chapter of the Sigma Theta Tau International Honor Society of Nursing.

Today’s healthcare workforce has faced many clinical challenges. Most clinicians adjust well to the variety of demands encountered during an emotionally charged clinical event. However, emotional stress can cause the individual to experience what is now known as the ‘second victim phenomenon.’ Realizing the impact of this experience and recognizing the need for supportive interventions is critically important to help safeguard a healthy recovery. This presentation provides insights into the lived experience and interventional support that helps to ensure support strategies are readily available for members of our healthcare workforce.

Objectives:
1. Describe the ‘second victim’ phenomenon.
2. Recognize high-risk clinical events that could evoke a second victim response.
3. Describe a comprehensive institutional approach that offers holistic support for their healthcare workforce.

This activity is approved for 1.0 contact hour(s) of continuing education by the American Association of Nurse Practitioners®. Activity ID# 22095744. This activity was planned in accordance with AANP Accreditation Standards and Policies. This activity has been approved through October 31, 2023.
