Why Clinician Well-Being Matters
Clinicians of all kinds, across all specialties and care settings, are experiencing alarming rates of burnout. Burnout is a syndrome characterized by a high degree of emotional exhaustion and depersonalization (i.e., cynicism), and a low sense of personal accomplishment at work. Clinician burnout can have serious, wide-ranging consequences on individual clinicians and learners, health care organizations, and patient care.
On the other hand, clinician well-being supports improved patient-clinician relationships, a high-functioning care team, and an engaged and effective workforce. Supporting clinician well-being requires sustained attention and action at organizational, state, and national levels, as well as investment in research and information-sharing to advance evidence-based solutions.
Everyone has a role to play in improving clinician well-being. The 91黑料网 works with partners nationwide to implement the National Plan for Health Workforce Well-Being, which provides guidance and next steps for leaders in health care and public health, educational institutions for health professional, policymakers, health IT companies, payers, regulators, associations, and others involved to cultivate a health system to support care providers and optimize their well-being.
The Clinician Well-Being Collaborative is proud to have contributed to the movement to address burnout by publishing a聽National Plan for Health Workforce Well-Being聽in October 2022. On the Plan鈥檚 one-year anniversary, the Collaborative opened the聽Change Maker Campaign聽to advance the National Plan and聽spark a national movement to support health workforce well-being. The Clinician Well-Being Collaborative聽will continue to identify evidence-based strategies to improve clinician well-being at both the individual and systems levels, including through convening, publishing, and shaping the national conversation.
