SWCAHEC would like to thank Lynn Borup for her many years of service on the SWCAHEC Board of Directors.

Lynn’s support for SWCAHEC staff and programming has been indispensable to the growth of the organization.

We are so grateful to Lynn for her mentorship, for her example as a community advocate for all community members, and for being a role model as a leader with integrity who cares deeply for the people in Southwestern Colorado.

Past the Pandemic:

Individual Wellbeing,
Connection and Support


June 8 - July 13


This ECHO series offers providers and other staff working in health care settings an opportunity to navigate, normalize and validate worries, stressors and experiences related to various health care environments. Participants will develop an awareness of the manifestations of stress along a continuum. With this framework, each session will provide helpful, tangible tools in a psychoeducational, didactic format to increase capacity, mitigate burnout, elevate connectedness and mindfulness, and promote self-efficacy and quality patient care.

This series is the newest iteration of Past the Pandemic, launched in 2020, and provides updated curriculum to capture current stressors in health care. This program is now a part of a state-wide initiative, Colorado CARES, aimed at increasing health care worker retention and resiliency.
