About Us
Who are we?
At Balanced HART NW we understand the daily struggles and challenges that come with being a first responder and medical professional in high stress environments. We have all been there, done that, each wearing our own t-shirt to prove it. Whether being on a rig, out in the field, in a hospital setting, at station, we know the camaraderie it takes to make a team as well as the reality of the culture we work in.
We have all felt the victory of helping others and the loss of not being able to save someone, especially when it is one of our own. BHNW was started with all of you in mind. We have all worked in the healthcare field, from first responders to nurses to fire. We know the struggles and experiences that are seen first hand. We have all felt the strain and burnout of the job and have all sat in the dark looking for the light at the end of the tunnel. We are trained in High Adversity Resilience and Resilience First Aid, making it a priority to practice the skills we teach in our careers and homes. We know the positive impact that it can have personally.
Our philosophy is that patients will always exist and we will always be there to take care of them. Our concern is for those that take care of the patient. We feel that there are not enough resources and support for those on the "front line". Who do we turn to in our time of need and who is there to support and help us? How do we best prepare ourselves for the journey, the career, that we are about to embark on? How do we become energized again by the career we used to love but now feel burned out from? How do you say that you want to become stronger in an environment that does not support "perceived weakness"? How do you help change the culture of the environment you work in?
This is where we come in. We are here to provide the support and training that you need, before you need it, and to show you how you can learn resilience to help support your colleagues and yourself when it counts the most, because after all we understand exactly what happens on the battle field of the ER and in the back of a rig.
Why we do what we do?
Because you are all the back bone of our healthcare, our community, our rock when we need solid ground. You are the people we appreciate and need when we are sick and hurt...and scared!
At Balanced HART NW, we believe that it is time to take care of our own. We want healthcare, fire, first responders, police...to come together in a supportive way that builds a stronger community. We want you to feel empowered to have the confidence that you can face any challenge on the job and walk away with the skills to know that it will be "ok".
We are constantly working hard on tailoring our curriculum and training to meet the needs of emerging industries. Get in touch with us today to find out how we can help you.
