A New Anger Management Opportunity: Educating Medical Professionals….As the President of the What’s Good About Anger Institute – I was recently contracted to present a one-hour anger management lecture for the physicians at Norwegian American Hospital in Chicago September 6th. This lecture has been approved as a function of the hospital’s continuing medical education! Since the program has to comply with established standards by the Illinois State Medical Society it must include pre and post test questions.
It took me awhile to come up with pre and post true/false test questions for scientifically minded medical professionals!
In my 20 years of nursing experience (prior to becoming a counselor in 1990) – I often encountered stressed-out, angry and even raging doctors in hospitals, institutions and operating rooms! These professionals are greatly in need of developing anger management and emotional intelligence skills. We hope to play a part in promoting healthy behavioral change for those in the medical arena.
Our Institute intends to market similar presentations to other hospitals. Not only does it pay very well – it is a wonderful opportunity to educate highly-educated medical professionals on the nature, complexity and usefulness of anger!
