For Doctors, Nurses and Hospital Staff Carrying Patient Grief
You didn't stop caring. You ran out of room to grieve. A real conversation with someone who has been on the floor, not another wellness email.

Kat Hurley, LCSW, spent six years on hospital floors — oncology, ICU, NICU, palliative, and transplant — before becoming a Certified Grief Recovery Method Specialist. She's taught grief to physicians at Columbia Med and Albert Einstein, and teaches grief studies at Fordham. Now she works with healthcare workers carrying patient grief that everyone keeps calling burnout.
It is not burnout, it is professional grief. Every patient you lost went somewhere, and it has been piling up with nowhere to go. The method: name it as grief first, then practical time-capped hacks to get you stable, then the deeper work to actually process it. Get you stable. Then get you free. In that order.
A focused process built for people who still have to show up tomorrow: name the grief, separate it from the personal, get stable with practical hacks, then do the deeper work to process it.
