Stop, Pause and Reflect
from Island Treasures Hosted by Alison van Schie
Jodi Kay Benusa is an Independent Geriatric Consultant who is a licensed social worker. She has been providing care in various ways throughout her entire life and it came as no surprise that she would enter the field of social work. Jodi works hard to preserve the rights of aging adults so they can live their best life through the toughest of times and she does this by asking questions so she can tailor her services to the needs of her clients. She is a problem solver who enjoys breaking through barriers to meet client goals. Jodi shares her own experience with burnout and how she is now able to recognize the warning signs and how to take steps to avoid burnout. Jodi introduced me to the term 'compassionate scientist' where exploring our reactions in situations helps us extend compassion to ourselves and others; simply, by stopping what we're doing, taking the pause and being compassionate instead of defensive.
