10 documents for protecting the people who protect your clients.
Behavioral health workers carry the emotional weight of other people's crises every day. They witness suffering, absorb trauma, make impossible decisions with inadequate resources, and then come back tomorrow to do it again. Burnout in this field is not a personal failure — it is an occupational hazard organizations have a duty to detect, address, and prevent.
