Webinar: From Burnout to Engagement: Strategies to Promote Physician Wellness and Workplace Satisfaction

Now available on demand

This webinar aired Wednesday, April 15, 2015 at 10:00 AM CST

About the Webinar

Faced with long hours, unrelenting administrative burdens and the pressure to treat patients quickly, a growing number of physicians are experiencing burnout, a condition characterized by loss of empathy, exhaustion, and a low sense of accomplishment. According to a Mayo Clinic survey from 2012, nearly one in two U.S physicians reported at least one symptom of burnout, up from 22% in 2001. For hospitals with stressed caregivers, the stakes are high. Burned out, dissatisfied physicians are far more likely to make medical errors and are less able to communicate effectively with patients and co-workers. They're also at a higher risk for substance abuse and are more likely to leave clinical practice altogether.

Despite the increase in burnout rates and awareness of its harmful effects, few approaches have been proven effective at addressing it. This editorial webinar will explore the approaches healthcare organizations have used to combat burnout and promote physician engagement. Our panel of experts will share their insights, experiences and proven strategies for success.

You will come away from this one-hour webinar with:

  • An understanding of the prevalence, causes and effects of burnout

  • Tips for identifying exhausted, stressed physicians

  • Real-world strategies from organizations who have made addressing burnout a priority
