About the webinar:

COVID-19 presents significant challenges not only in caring for patients, but also in managing the wellbeing of dietitians who are supporting these patients.  In this webinar, health psychologist Glenn Mackintosh shares practical evidence-based strategies to help clinical dietitians manage stress, maintain optimism, and cultivate self-compassion during this difficult and uncertain time.
