The prevalence of moral distress and its relationship to burnout create urgency in finding ways to address it. Commonplace in clinical practice, moral distress is the anguished experienced in response to a situation that compromises our integrity. The prolonged consequences can result in erosion of our physical, emotional, psychological and spiritual well-being. The solutions we discover will require alignment of both individual and system focused strategies aimed at fostering moral resilience and a culture of ethical practice.
This experiential workshop will explore the contours of moral distress in clinical practice, by examining the emerging concept of moral resilience, and by applying a methodology for creating meaningful systemic results. Using individual skills in mindful awareness, participants will explore their moral suffering and learn ways to foster their moral resilience by cultivating new neuropathways, restoring integrity, and fostering ethical competence and self-stewardship. With this foundation we will focus on applying a conscious full spectrum model in creating a culture of ethical practice and in designing system approaches to address the root causes of moral distress in clinical practice.
