Description
Many healthcare professionals are reporting excessive amounts of fatigue after handling their caseloads through video conferencing technology. In addition to the physical experience of fatigue, clinicians are experiencing back or neck pain, headaches, eye-strain, and more. Many psychologists are reporting that delivering services through telehealth is “harder” and “more draining” than in-person care. Some researchers are linking these phenomena to increased cognitive challenges related to telepsychology—even coining the term “Zoom Fatigue.”
How Do You Stop Zoom Fatigue?
Easy and practical tips and strategies will be provided by two seasoned teleprofessionals who will share the secrets they’ve learned to not only tolerate their video interactions but actually enjoy them. Suggestions will also be made about how to screen clients and patients to help minimize stress. Other resources will be outlined to guide the curious clinician in where else to seek guidance if the need arises.
Learning Objectives
Participants of this 1-hour, fully RECORDED event will be able to:
- Name at least 7 strategies for combating zoom fatigue
- Describe how one’s desk arrangement can be changed to reduce zoom fatigue
