PassportUSA is committed to our mission of improving lives and making healthcare work better. As part of our continued effort to invest in our nurse’s well-being and education, we are proud to announce our newest training offering: Resilience in Healthcare - a HealthStream course. This course helps nurses identify the early stages of burnout and offers practical solutions to prevent or mitigate burnout during elevated stress times.

“Our chosen profession is stressful during the most routine times. The added stress of the pandemic and the staff shortages have identified a need for every health care professional to become more resilient and identify signs of burnout. Health Carousel is encouraging all health care professionals to educate themselves on burnout and work to develop strategies for self-care to become resilient!” – Earl Dalton, CNO

Nurse burnout is a type of compassion fatigue characterized by emotional exhaustion and a low sense of accomplishment. This phenomenon is common among healthcare professionals and has only been amplified in the last year due to COVID19. Is your nursing workforce experiencing burnout? PassportUSA is your staffing solution!
