Finding Your Zone: Mindfulness Practices for the Healthcare Workforce
Vivek Murthy, MD, Surgeon General of the United States, released an advisory, Addressing Health Worker Burnout, in 2022. He acknowledges health workers have been able to “persevere and perform” despite the many challenges in the current healthcare landscape; however, he also advises that many have been “pushed to the brink” and we are now facing a health worker burnout and mental health crisis. He issues a challenge to “care for those who have always cared for us”.
Jama Greene, MD, and Victor Jones, LCSW, LCAS, have developed content to give health workers information and tools to improve their well-being and to meet Dr. Murthy’s challenge.
