Luis Garcia, MD, president of Sioux Falls, S.D.-based Sanford Health, shared three well-being priorities that can reduce physician burnout on a Becker's webinar, sponsored by the American Medical Association.
Three physician burnout prevention strategies:
1. Engage with your clinicians. Check in regularly, especially within the first two years of practice, to ensure physicians are adapting to a positive culture.
2. Promote resiliency. Provide assistance programs, internal coaching and wellness counseling.
3. Create strong leadership. Offer programs that allow for physicians to receive leadership development training and coaching.
