Publisher's summary

When physicians and nurses suffer from burnout, patients suffer as well. This book pinpoints the how and why, and shows what healthcare providers and their organizations can do.

Burnout is among the most critical topics in healthcare as it deprives us of our most important resource - the talents and passion of those who perform the difficult work of caring for patients and their families. The purpose of this work is to provide not only a taxonomy of burnout within the landscape of healthcare, but also to provide pathways for healthcare professionals to guide themselves and their organizations toward changing the culture and systems of their organization.

An additional purpose is to summarize personal strategies to prevent and ameliorate burnout.
Practical tools, techniques, and case studies are used to illustrate specifically how to promote positive, proactive change. The book looks at healthcare workers’ roles in promoting change within themselves and their organization, and addresses solutions to change the culture and the systems of work. Both are presented with a pragmatic focus, with liberal use of examples and case reviews, including those from several nationally recognized healthcare systems.

Inspirational

Enjoyed this very much. I appreciate it included an indictment of the current system as well as proposals of both individual and organization paradigm shifts (psychological, behavioral, and actionable) to combat burnout.

With the number of tables/figures, an accompanying PDF is definitely required and as of this writing I can’t find one included. Still a good value.
