Stop #PhysicianBurnout

Here is my nominee for the all-time Worst Physician Burnout Article Headline

An article last week in Medpage Today by Kristina Fiore used this headline:

When is a medical error a criminal act and what is your risk of being thrown under the bus if you make a mistake?

A nurse was recently convicted of a criminal act - negligent homicide - for a 2017 medical error at Vanderbilt University Medical Center in Nashville, TN.

You know the Pareto Principle either by that name or by its more common expression: The 80:20 Rule

Turns out that the Pareto Principle applies to Physician Burnout. We even have a study to prove the point. 

When the stress of your personal practice whirlwind has your energy balance below zero, it is hard to imagine the future.

And I invite you to focus for a few minutes on the most interesting survey on the nebulous concept of the Future of Healthcare I have ever seen. Fascinating stuff. 

When I talk to doctors and physician leaders about Physician Burnout, they always make the same mistake.

They ask simple questions and expect simple answers when none exist.

Last week Amazon announced you can now "see" a doctor via Alexa.

Customers can connect with Teladoc by saying “Alexa, I want to talk to a doctor.” They’ll get a call back on their device from a Teladoc doctor. The "visit" costs $75 for people without insurance.

Did you know that your emotional responses to disaster have a known structure and a logical order you will find comforting?

I knew about the symptoms of physician burnout, Kubler-Ross and her stages, even stages of quitting smoking, but until today I had never been introduced to Zunin and Myers and the 6 Stages of Normal Human Emotional Response to Disaster.

This is a fascinating progression and strikes true for my experience of COVID so far. These stages are intertwined with physician burnout, PTSD and so many other normal and abnormal psychological responses to difficulty and struggle.

My sister Dana is a chef turned EMT and now a Nurse. She made the career move from a desire to make a deeper difference.

She sent me this incredible video today. It is an amazing testimonial to the impact of corporate greed on the lives and careers of nurses and doctors everywhere. Blaming this workforce decimation on COVID and abusive patients is false and deceptive.
