Who Cares about Healthcare Workers in Pandemics? – WE CARE!
Spreading awareness is key. Especially in pandemics, which pose a major threat not only to physical, but also to mental health. Strengthening mental health of healthcare workers, helpers and volunteers who stand at the frontline of the pandemic 24/7 is the central priority of the Who Cares platform. The platform Who Cares is an effective, appropriate and innovative way of dissemination and exchange of knowledge, good practices and expertise. The online library includes best practices for training and knowledge exchange with focus on tools supporting helpers to distress.
