Health care is a demanding profession that places a considerable amount of stress on the physical, emotional and mental resources of highly involved and highly committed individuals who care for other people. In addition to caring for ill and vulnerable people, health care professionals have to deal with excessive working hours, ineffective teams, complex management structures and imbalanced social and family lives.

To balance the demands of a highly stressful job and lead a satisfactory life while caring for others, health care professionals need to develop mental resiliency, effective communication skills, an optimistic and positive attitude and coping behaviours that will enable them to function at their highest potential.
