Summary : This book is designed to help religious leaders, professional counselors, concerned family members, and individuals offer viable, appropriate levels of care to someone with an addiction problem, one who refuses to accept assisted-living conditions or comply with medical advice. Using tools in this book can increase awareness of the issue and acceptance of recovery. Learn how to avoid compassion fatigue while using healthy personal boundaries. Because these tools are likely used in an emotional setting, the least emotionally involved helper or leader is the best person for attempting an organized intervention. Concerned others may be able to find serenity after going through this process. This book teaches a mini-intervention or one-on-one short meeting as a setup for a full-blown maxi-intervention later, if necessary. If the maxi-intervention is not successful at first, next steps and consequences are taught. These steps are in keeping with Jesus’ instructions on how to approach someone with an issue. This book compiles thirty-nine years of studying and experience of achieving compliance with the best of care for someone refusing help with a serious issue. In using these steps and illustrations, 90 percent of the full maxi-interventions result in beginning the first stages of treatment or recovery.

Summary : The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of an online, asynchronous mindful-based stress reduction (MBSR) intervention on symptoms of compassion fatigue for medical speech-language pathologists (SLPs). Although there is evidence that modified versions of MBSR programs, such as online-delivery models, can reduce compassion fatigue symptoms among various healthcare providers, the population of speech-language pathology has not been studied previously. In this ABA, single subject research design, a recruitment of seven participants completed and eight-week online, asynchronous mindfulness-based stress reduction program. Participants were full-time employed medical speech-language pathologists holding Certificate of Clinical Competence and state licensure and reported average to high levels of perceived stress. The online, asynchronous MBSR program consisted of one to two-hour weekly modules on a given topic of mindfulness that was accessed online at the leisure of the participant and included practice application activities. Weekly measurements of compassion fatigue symptoms were collected via the Professional Quality of Life Scale, version 5 (ProQOL-5). Results suggested an online, asynchronous MBSR program was effective at reducing compassion fatigue symptoms of both burnout and secondary traumatic stress for medical SLPs. These findings contribute to the body of literature investigating remediation strategies for various healthcare providers experiencing compassion fatigue.
