We are delighted to have Dani Chammas, psychiatrist and palliative care physician, back on the GeriPal podcast to talk about emotional PPE. None of us can recall who originated the term, but we've all heard it bandied about much needed for front line providers treating patients with coronavirus. Headlines about the New York emergency room doctor committing suicide are likely only the tip of the iceberg in terms of the trauma, distress, and moral injury taking place. We talk with Dani about key issues and questions, including: - What is trauma? What is moral injury? - Is this a big deal? What evidence do we have? - What can we do about it? Dani goes over 3 broad buckets of responses, organized with the letter C: Connection, Culture, and Coping. - Normalizing rather than stigmatizing clinicians seeking mental health support We also decided to add a page to GeriPal titled "emotional PPE" with a list of resources for providers caring for patients with COVID, and we will link to that page once it's up. Please visit GeriPal.org for the following important mental health resources for providers: - The NYC COVID Worker Care Network - Pro-Bono Counseling for Frontline Physicians and APCs - Physician Support Line. - Disaster Distress Help Line - How to be a Catalyst of Calm in COVID19 -@AlexSmithMD
