In honor of Mental Health Awareness Month, FL-GAPNA would like to provide mental health resources for those who provide care for the most vulnerable. The Center for Patient Safety has developed a program that focuses on self care for healthcare workers.  It includes exercises to address breathing, meditation, stress relief, and yoga. Their mission is to reduce preventable harm by emphasizing self-care for staff, especially front-line staff and others who struggling to care for patients and their families.
