  3. Overall, based on your definition of burnout, I am in primary care and am excited to how would you rate your level of burnout: go to work on most days: 1) I enjoy my work. I have no symptoms of burnout § True 2) Occasionally I am under stress, and I don’t always have as much energy as I once did, but I don’t feel burned out § False 3) I am definitely burning out and have one or more symptoms of burnout, such as physical and emotional exhaustion 4) The symptoms of burnout that I’m experiencing won’t go away. I think about frustration at work a lot 5) I feel completely burned out and often wonder if I can go on.

  4. It’s Not Just Us What is Burnout? Overall prevalence of burnout was 41% Rates of burnout in our teams : physicians (49%), nurse care managers Exhaustion, depersonalization, low sense of (42%), MAs, LPNs (32%), and admins (36%) accomplishment We are more burned out when we are part of under-staffed teams with frequent turnover , and when we are over-empanelled . Nearly half of all U.S. nurses and physicians Burnout prevalence was 30% lower for those working on fully staffed teams with no turnover and caring for an appropriate panel compared Contributes to lower patient satisfaction, worse patient other practices. safety, take sick leave, depression and relationship problems at home and work Helfrich CD et al, The Association of Team-Specific Workload and Staffing with Odds of Burnout Among VA Primary Care Team Members.

System fixes: § PCP burnout was positively associated with PCP reports of performing two discrete tasks without reliance on team members: (1) intervening on patient lifestyle factors Burnout improved with workflow interventions , and with targeted QI ( p = 0.002) and (2) educating patients about disease-specific self-care activities ( p < 0.001). projects . § Other variables significantly associated with PCP burnout ( p ≤ 0.05) included team Interventions in communication and workflow communication, team knowledge and skills, satisfaction with team, age, female gender, and years of practice. Dissatisfaction is far worse in countries with multipayer private insurance systems § The extent to which PCPs share responsibility for 14 discrete primary care tasks with other team members and which tasks were performed by the PCPs without reliance on team members are associated with PCP burnout.

  5. Resilience to Burnout Joy Has to be Our Priority We practice medicine for the patient interaction and the intellectual Addressing burnout is necessary, but not sufficient. challenge Deploying curiosity is an opportunity with each patient We all believe that health is more than the absence of disease. Curiosity (continuous learning) is sensed by the patient and family, leading to improvements in both patient and physician satisfaction Joy in work is more than the absence of burnout.

JGIM Aug 2015 30(8): 1062 Primary Care Medicine: Principles and Practice 7 Primary Care Medicine: Principles and Practice 10 Face to Face Visits, remember those? “We physicians often root our hope in our patients’ outcomes, feeling confident when they recover, and we leave ourselves open to despair when outcomes are not good. In fact, it is the shared journey, the ever-evolving process, which offers both patient and doctor an opportunity to grow, learn, and discover. Therein lies hope for patient and clinician alike. In these profound moments, we bear witness to the relationship in an act of fidelity, not to the outcome, but to the Other. Our perspective shifts away from ourselves. It is here in this moment of deep empathic connection that many of us find hope and meaning that remains not only the patient’s greatest solace but also the clinician’s best remedy to burnout. In our willingness to be open to the unexpected, to be surprised, we must relinquish control and give the gift of curiosity, or even suspended disbelief.” Finding Hope in the Face-to-Face.
