Pause to reflect I
Identify a work-related time when you felt totally overwhelmed. As you go back to that time, reflect upon how you responded to the workload.
Work through the following questions:
- What contributed to your workload?
- How did you feel? Was your concentration affected?
- Did it affect how you interacted with other colleagues and patients?
- Did you speak to a line manager or employer?
- Do you feel confident to admit that you could be stressed without retribution?
Reflect upon your answers.
Could you have reacted differently? How can you personally address workload in your practice?
