Behavioral Health Solutions: Through COVID-19 and BeyondDate: Wednesday, May 20, 2020 To Register: Click here Program DescriptionThe novel coronavirus pandemic has upended life as we know it, causing feelings of anxiety, depression, and grief. Across the U.S., people are grieving the losses of missed major life events, travel plans, face-to-face social interactions, and tragic losses of life. Health care workers are seeing first-hand the physical and emotional toll of COVID-19. Essential staff members are dealing with the risks of getting infected, or infecting family members, while doing their jobs. Other employees are grappling with the adjustment and isolation of working from home. Parents with school-age children are feeling the pressure of working, teaching, and having little to no free time to take care of themselves. Many employees have elderly parents or relatives who are at a high risk of dying — without the presence of loved ones. Add to that the stress of endless streams of information about mandatory quarantines, and jumps in the number of infected individuals and lost jobs, and it is only natural for employees to experience fear, loneliness, burnout, and anxiety. How long we will live in heightened tension is unknown, but the mental health toll will linger well after a vaccine is widely available. Leaders must support their staff’s mental health now more than ever. Not only is it the right thing to do for your employees, it is also the right thing to do for your organization. In fact, the World Health Organization estimates that every $1 invested into “treatment for common mental disorders” will return $4 in improved health and productivity.
