Seeking recommendations for wellness resources for AAMCNews article

  • 1.  Seeking recommendations for wellness resources for AAMCNews article

    Posted 08-24-2023 02:44:00 PM

    Since the start of the COVID-19 pandemic, the percentage of physicians reporting symptoms of burnout has increased to more than 63%. While there is no simple cure for the challenges physicians are facing today, there are tools that can help them care for themselves while they care for their patients. I'm putting together an article for AAMCNews listing a few resources that can help those experiencing burnout focus on their own health. If there's a book, movie, podcast, article, app, or activity that has helped you through an emotionally and mentally challenging time, please feel free to share it here or send it to me at bbalch@aamc.org. 

    Thanks!

    Bridget
