In 2019, more than half of physicians reported experiencing burnout, and data suggest that other health and social service professionals experience similarly high levels.  The costs of burnout to provider well-being, patient care, and the healthcare system are much too great to ignore, and there are emerging promising practices to review and consider for implementation. With the COVID-19 pandemic increasing the burden on healthcare and social services, it has become imperative for organizations and individuals alike to implement preventative and responsive methods.

The training includes an overview of the history and current definitions surrounding clinician and provider burnout. It will also discuss how this burnout has been magnified in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic and the current racial justice movement in the United States.

Participants also discuss multi-level, trauma-informed prevention and intervention strategies for clinician and provider burnout. They will examine what socially-just, trauma-informed capacity building looks like in a workplace and how it can inform burnout prevention programs and policies.

The webinar is free, but registration is required.
