Introduction
Compassion Fatigue Resilience Research
There are several facets to the research that we are doing related to compassion fatigue resilience including developing the Self-Care Behaviors and Beliefs Scale (SCBBS) and an online intervention program called "ME FIRST". We also have the initial version of our Self-Care Beliefs Scale (SCBS) available for use for research purposes.
