Caring for caregivers: How to address healthcare's mental health crisis


Wednesday, February 16th, 2022 | 1:00 PM - 2:00 PM CT 

A mental health crisis is gripping front-line caregivers. For healthcare workers especially, the pandemic has exacerbated preexisting mental health issues, laid bare the lack of support many feel from their employers and prompted a wave of resignations.

In a recent survey of more than 1,200 employees and benefit leaders, 59 percent of workers said their mental health has affected their ability to do their jobs this year, up from 48 percent a year prior. Learn how today’s healthcare employees and employers are reimagining how they address mental health at work in Lyra Health’s 2022 State of Mental Health at Work report.

In this webinar, you'll learn:
  • What 43 percent of employee benefits leaders say is among the top three challenges of their role, and how they're responding to the current mental health crisis
  • What's stopping healthcare workers from accessing the care they need
  • Top insights and practical guidance from mental health clinicians and healthcare industry leaders
