Navigating Loss in Healthcare Teams: We Are in This Together.

This commentary highlights the vulnerability, lived-experience, and wisdom gained by providers who have navigated extraordinary stress and painful loss(es) at work. Their narratives serve to remind us that we-physicians, psychologists, nurses, chaplains, and others-are just as human as the patients and families that seek our help. The stoicism indoctrinated into us through our training is not helpful. Instead, as we reach out to each other, providers are able to offer and receive support from loved-ones and professional peers, colleagues, and mentors in a myriad of ways. As we do this together, we do better-personally and professionally.
