Recognising the Realities of Helpers
​

Helpers, including healthcare professionals, teachers, social workers, police officers, firefighters, paramedics, and probation officers, often carry the expectation of being selfless and superhuman. However, the truth is that these heroes are affected by their work. The demands they face can be overwhelming, and it's common for them to leave their jobs feeling like they haven't done enough. Empathy, a crucial aspect of their work, can also be a source of traumatic stress, leading to burnout or a sense of being overwhelmed.

Early Awareness and Resilience

​

Recognising these challenges early on is crucial for building resilience and preventing burnout. The needs of helpers are often similar to those they assist, but they are frequently overlooked.
