Peer Support
We have team members throughout our organization who are trained and certified to support you. They offer a confidential listening ear and understand what it is like to do this difficult work, because they too serve our community. Sometimes, we need someone who understands the stress of this work to be present with us. They can help normalize your experience at work and within your family as a healthcare professional. Allow our team to support you by reaching out today.
Spiritual Care
Spirituality encompasses what gives life meaning. Your spirituality is personal and, throughout life, it is normal to question, to experience shifts in belief, and to see those changes affect your community. Admitting a shift in worldview can feel daunting, so our Chaplains are available to support you through times of uncertainty. We help you discover what makes you feel authentic and how you choose to engage with your one unique life.
Code Lavender Cart
Feeling overwhelmed on the floor is inevitable in healthcare. Our team wants to normalize your need to take a moment and regroup. This need does not make you weak or less than; it makes you human. The Code Lavender cart is full of resources to help you feel like you again: Aromatherapy, chocolate, mindfulness tools, inspirational reading, tea, and coloring all offer a variety of ways to care for yourself for a few minutes so that you can return to caring for others.
Therapy Dog
Levels of the stress hormone cortisol drop in people after just 5-20 minutes interacting with dogs, even if it is not your pet! During these brief exchanges, Oxytocin increases, which aids with anxiety and stress responses as well as boosts interpersonal bonding. We will make the arrangements for a dog to visit when you notify us where support is needed.
