Self-Care at Work

Wellness Strategies Workshops for Health and Wellbeing

Working on the front lines of heath care and behavioral health is exciting, fulfilling and gratifying. It can also be demanding, stressful, and overwhelming. Long hours working with people who are struggling to stay healthy while dealing with lots of personal, economic, and social challenges can really take its toll.

Feeling Run Down and Struggling With Work-Life Balance?

In the business of helping people, our to-do lists are long, the people we work with need us, and there never seem to be enough hands and resources to go around. As helpers, we tend to let ourselves be a last priority. Work is hard, life is hard, and continuing to show up for both while feeling the all-too-common signs of burnout and compassion fatigue can leave us in a tough spot.

We invite you to attend any or all of our 90-minute online self-care workshops. These sessions focus on ways to live with joy, safety, and compassion for oneself. This translates to greater productivity and workplace satisfaction to be at our best for our clients, without sacrificing ourselves in the process.

Each session will leave you with a spark of hope, a sense of community, and a plan for ongoing well-being.

What our participants are saying...

"Everything about the training was meaningful to me. Learning about what compassion fatigue, compassion satisfaction, burnout, moral distress, and trauma were, including the signs of compassion fatigue were very meaningful and interesting at the same time".

- Take Care of Yourself Participant

"Framing self-care as a ethical standard that we must abide instead of should abide by, changed the way I view self-care and how it should be more of a priority in my life."

NEON is a connector, innovator, and expert resource

Rural and culturally underserved communities in Oregon are often under-resourced, particularly in their capacity to support the health of residents. As a result, barriers to community health can be enormous—providers experience gaps in funding, technology, and training; community members commonly have limited access to information and care. Our mission at NEON is to create a healthier Oregon. We accomplish this by reducing barriers for both residents and the systems that support their health. We are connectors, innovators and experts. We connect people and organizations to one another and to resources they need to meet their goals. By thinking out of the box and harnessing the creativity of our communities, we help lead the development of solutions to the unique challenges faced in our region. We make it our priority to learn and share policy, practice, and tools that will help others accomplish more. We believe that by working together, the communities of Oregon can move from surviving to healthy, happy, and thriving.

NEON was launched in 2004 by a small group of individuals who recognized the value of community collaboration in ensuring the health of our residents.
