Is burnout moral injury? Is it out of your control?
ZDoggMD talks about burnout being moral injury. Link here:
(30) It's Not Burnout, It's Moral Injury | Dr. Zubin Damania on Physician "Burnout" - YouTube
We jump back into our discussion on the video.
Casey says one of the great things about this job is that we have the privilege to be with people on their worst day.
Nate talks about the conflict we sometimes have one scene when treatment plans are not agreed upon. He talks about burnout from not trying to get to the source of a patient’s psychiatric problem and just medicating them.
Kiley talks about the reality of practice vs school and that we can’t fix every problem we encounter.
We can take the time to be empathetic and this can help combat burnout if you allow it.
The sorrowful aspect of our job is really difficult. You must know your limitations.
Kiley discusses how sometimes we can’t do much to help or even do adequate alleviation of pain, and all we can do is hold the patients hand.
We all got into this job to serve others and we can lose sight of that. We need to remember to express appreciation for each other in the quick moments we have before chaos descends again.
Leadership is key at every level in emergency medicine. Saying no to a bad plan takes some confidence and leadership skills.
A good leader takes weight off other people’s shoulders by leading well. By doing everything we can for a patient.
A good leader can take criticism and remains humble. They take the opinions of others into account.
When something goes well, give away the credit. When something goes wrong, take responsibility.
Good leaders know when to follow. They are not dictators.
When everyone leads at their own level, chaotic cases come together smoothly.
