Do you feel overwhelmed or stressed out? During stressful times we can continue to grow and learn healthy ways to deal with stress. This seminar is for everyone! Dr. Conte will discuss ways to increase our resilience and also practice self-care in our daily lives. Dr. Conte spent 16 years as a bedside pediatric nurse with 10 years as a staff nurse on the oncology and bone marrow transplant units at the Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia. She is active in practice as a nurse practitioner in the Scranton area. Dr. Conte’s research areas of interest include self-care and resilience practices for nurses, work-related loss, grief and stress management among nurses, and the experiences of young adult cancer survivors. She has presented her research throughout the country and has developed programs for nurses that focus on their own self-care and stress management. She also teaches the Self-Care and Resiliency course available to PCPS majors. Email LMaurer@albright.org to register for this Zoom meeting on Monday, August 10 at 7 PM.
