Reframing the Conversation Around Clinician Distress: Fostering a Culture of Wellbeing Through Organizational Change

Date
May 18, 2024

SOCIETY: AGA Physician burnout has reached distressing levels, with nearly two-thirds of doctors experiencing at least one symptom of burnout in a recent study. There is increasing recognition that this "burnout" is a symptom of an increasingly profit-driven healthcare system that has caused many physicians to feel alienated from their work due to reduced time with patients, increasing administrative burdens, and inability to act according to their professional values. This Clinical Symposium will explore the concept of moral injury in medicine and attempt to re-frame the conversation around clinician burnout by focusing on the system rather than on the individual clinician. It will explore key ways to promote clinician wellbeing by addressing compliance, regulatory, and policy barriers impeding ethical practice, by harnessing health IT, and through principles of ethical organizational leadership. It will conclude with a panel discussion to facilitate meaningful discussion of this important topic impacting all clinicians.

Presentations:

WHAT IS MORAL INJURY, AND WHY DOES IT MATTER?
ADDRESSING COMPLIANCE, REGULATORY, AND POLICY BARRIERS IMPACTING CLINICIAN WELLNESS
HEALTH IT & CLINICIAN WELLBEING: HARNESSING TECHNOLOGY TO CURE WHAT AILS US
THE ROLE OF ORGANIZATIONAL LEADERSHIP IN CLINICIAN WELLNESS
PANEL DISCUSSION
