Imagined Futures supports frontline workers to tackle burnout!

This week, the Imagined Futures Community of Practice hosted a workshop, Exploring Burnout and Activating Self-Care, for frontline workers in the South West Metro region. This interactive training session, led by RDP Enterprise Solutions, focused on understanding stress, compassion fatigue and burnout, including recognising signs and symptoms and exploring prevention strategies such as boundaries and self-care.

This training was in response to increased pressure reported by frontline workers who are supporting more and more people needing assistance with the increasing costs of living.
Thank you to Neami National, who funded the training, and the City of Melville for providing the venue.

We got some great feedback from our 19 participants, who attended from ten different organisations including local government and community agencies.

“This training was well presented and resourceful. I leave more confident about how to set and keep my boundaries in my personal and work life.”

“Great training with very useful tools and techniques.”

“Was useful to stop and reflect on my own behaviour and that of people I work with and my family and friends.”
