Wellness Connection: Compassion Rounds
CMA
Compassion rounds, held virtually through our Wellness Connection platform, provide an opportunity for physicians to talk about the heart of their work in a safe space, while also learning how to practise self-care. Work–life balance, family relationships, communication under stress and the physician personality are some of the topics that are covered in these dynamic and interactive sessions.
