Silver Lining Playbooks - Strength

Welcome back to a special edition of Live Well and Thrive: Silver Lining Playbooks. I'm your host, Carrie Owen Plietz. In our first special episode, it was incredible to hear caregivers’ stories about the early days of the COVID-19 pandemic. Our teams fought a novel virus which sometimes defied treatment. They faced overwhelming odds and their own fears. So how did caregivers find the strength to provide the compassionate care patients and families needed? In this second episode, we'll hear stories of sadness and loss, but also of joy and laughter, and how our teams found strength in the support from their communities, their families, and each other. ---------------------------------------- Hosted on Acast.

Silver Lining Playbooks - The Beginning

Welcome to a special series of Live Well & Thrive - Silver Lining Playbooks, The Beginning. In early 2020, when COVID-19 first hit, there was fear, challenges, confusion, and just overwhelming odds. But then came learning, and hope, and stories we can't forget. We invited a cross-section of our care team to tell us about their first encounter with a COVID-19 patient along with some of the lessons they learned from each other and their patients over the three-plus year pandemic. Over the course of three special episodes, we'll hear what our frontline caregivers experienced from confusion and fear to mutual support and some silver linings. Let's go back to the beginning. ---------------------------------------- Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy [https://acast.com/privacy] for more information.
