Resilience with Dr. Marie-Louise Sprenkels
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
As we cross the finish line of 2020 we’re joined by retired anaesthetist and academic anaesthesiologist Dr. Marie-Louise Sprenkels, talking to us about resilience whilst sharing her wisdom & stories from her career on the wards of Cape Town’s biggest major trauma centre. There also seems to be some jingly interference on the airwaves…
While Marie-Louise is not on social media for you to follow, you can certainly follow her advice: wash your hands, wear a mask, look after yourself and stay safe!
Content warning: brief mention of suicide @ 16:36 - 17:00
