You may not be familiar with moral injury – but you need to be.
Moral injury describes a cluster of symptoms — similar to those associated with PTSD — that result when a person violates their closely held values and beliefs. It can occur when people face traumatic situations where high-stakes decisions must be made.
And today, millions of healthcare workers have been on the frontline of a deadly pandemic. Many have had to make difficult decisions that contradict deeply held beliefs about who gets care and how people should die. It can leave them feeling guilty, unforgivable, depressed and suicidal…and in need of help.
