Health care professionals often face significant emotional and psychological challenges when involved in adverse events, a phenomenon known as "second victim" syndrome. This webinar aims to provide essential strategies for supporting those who care for others, helping to prevent burnout, improve well-being, and foster a culture of safety within health care organizations.

Through this session, participants will gain a deeper understanding of how to recognize and address the emotional needs of caregivers affected by adverse events.
