While DAISY Honorees are a testament to resiliency, it has been proven that resilience is like a muscle. It can be degraded in stressful environments, but with just a little practice of self-care strategies, our vitality and resilience can be strengthened and sustained throughout our lives.
One nurse graduate says: “StressPal does a beautiful job of addressing our troubles by first making use feel heard and known, and then with definitive actions we can take to manage our stressors and improve our well-being, allowing us to continue to provide high quality care to our patients.” Currently, 100% of learners say they are highly likely (73%) or likely (27%) to recommend the program to their co-workers and wellness leaders.
