Recommendation
Healthcare workers risk their lives by exposing themselves to COVID-19, and the stress of their jobs renders them susceptible to PTSD, argue Diana Hendel and Mark Goulston. They say a cultural lack of trauma awareness, combined with “warlike” work conditions, prevents these brave workers from healing. In response, the authors offer a guidebook for healthcare workers starting their healing journeys, and for those leading during this crisis.
