HeartMath
in Health Care--An Introduction
This is a time of unequalled stress in health care. A nursing shortage, now
reaching unprecedented proportions, ranks as one of the top three problems
hospital administrators face. High turnover rates, sick leave, medical errors,
and shrinking reimbursement add greater and greater stress. With these stresses,
personal and organizational effectiveness suffers.
The
Importance of Emotional Balance in Health Care
Emotional management is a prerequisite for individual and organizational
health and productivity. Thriving health care organizations create a culture
of care for their workforce as well as for the patients and communities they serve.
Providing skills to manage the stress within each individual translates into
increased health and well-being for the organization as well as for those
it serves.
HeartMath is the only system scientifically validated to reverse the effects of stress on both individuals and organizations--and to translate those effects into bottom-line results.
