About

This video presentation is about burnout and secondary traumatic stress. It describes how these issues can affect people, especially those working in stressful environments like healthcare, and in particular pediatrics. Burnout happens when someone feels very tired and loses interest in their work due to long-term stress. Secondary traumatic stress occurs when a person is affected by the trauma experienced by others, often seen in caregivers or first responders.
