Moral injury occurs when someone is exposed to actions or inaction that conflict with their moral beliefs. Ideally, recovery from moral injury on the job includes an ability to separate self-worth and occupation. Stepping out of the uniform after moral injury is often a relief for someone struggling after trauma, affording time for careful consideration of whether or when to step back in. Supportive friends, family, faith leaders, and colleagues can help someone struggling with moral injury by affirming authentic self-worth outside of the occupation that contributed to their emotional injury.
