Clinician Well-Being as a National Priority
While clinician burnout has been called a “silent epidemic,” the repercussions have become too loud to ignore. The high rate of depression and suicide among American healthcare workers has resulted in the launch of a national program to promote clinician well-being and resilience. The National Academy of Medicine’s initiative is working to reverse the trend and its negative affect on doctors and other clinicians, as well as on patients. Along with hospitals across the nation, we want to heighten awareness among our staff, identify the contributors to stress and discuss ways to prevent burnout.
