You as a Healthcare Professional are stressed.
And why wouldn't you be?
With the healthcare system being stretched and mounting pressures of EHRS, paperwork, and administrative tasks, Nurses and Healthcare Professionals are burning the candle at both ends. To make matters worse, you are not able to spend adequate time with your patients, despite putting in 50-80 hours per week. Additionally, disrespect from administrators, bullying and harassment from coworkers, and difficult interactions with patients and families contribute to a stressful work environment. This leads to emotional and physical exhaustion, feelings of overwhelm, and burnout.
Approximately 33% of new nurses leave the workforce within the first two years,1 costing a hospital or medical center 2x the annual salary to replace each nurse.2 The average cost of nurse turnover per institution is about $5 million a year.3
Nationally, the Physician burnout rate is approximately 43%,4 leading to medical errors, lack of patience towards patients and families, increased sick days, and turnover.
As a healthcare professional, you are committed to caring for others. But are you caring for yourself?
