The holiday season is notoriously stressful, but the pandemic is making every little thing so much more challenging. It’s vital to prioritize your own mental health. Take advantage of these resources whenever you need them:
Check on Your Peers
It’s a great time to gently check in with your friends, family and colleagues. Worried about saying the wrong thing? Read these peer support basics.
Want to remind your team about on-site support options? Create a mental health care access map. Already have one? Resend the map so your coworkers know how to find support during the challenging months ahead.
Last but not least: If you’re passionate about peer support in emergency medicine, we invite you to join ACEP’s new Peer Support Project.
