Caring for the Caregivers – Mental Health and Resilience in Palliative Education

Providing palliative care is emotionally demanding. Healthcare professionals and family caregivers often face burnout, grief, and moral distress. In Bangladesh, where mental health support is limited, these challenges can be overwhelming.

Pallium Academy Bangladesh recognizes that caring for others begins with caring for oneself. That’s why its training programs include modules on self-care, emotional resilience, and mental health. Participants learn how to:

• Recognize signs of burnout and compassion fatigue.
• Practice mindfulness and stress management.
• Seek peer support and professional help when needed.

These lessons are not just theoretical—they are life-saving. By nurturing the emotional well-being of caregivers, Pallium Academy ensures that they can continue to serve with strength and compassion.

In a healthcare system under pressure, resilient caregivers are the backbone of quality care. Pallium Academy’s holistic approach to education honors their humanity and equips them to thrive, not just survive.
