Too few physicians are delivering primary care even as patient demand is rising. #GrahamCenter Director @YaldaJabbarpour spoke with @aafp News about the new primary care scorecard and what family physicians can learn from it. Read the interview here ⬇️ bit.ly/3x4as2y
The latest episode of Not Otherwise Specified takes a sobering look at the mental health of U.S. medical students and trainees, in an era when the pressures can be intolerable but the culture still treats depression as weakness.
I'd also highly encourage you to learn more about this topic and consider becoming involved in health worker burnout and suicide prevention efforts through @drbreenheroes (drlornabreen.org).
Recently, some have asked "How much wellness is too much wellness?" - I'd argue this is a premature and difficult question to answer without having centralized and school-based mechanisms to both track rates of suicide and regularly assess trainee wellbeing with validated tools.
If you’d like to learn more about the data I highlighted, I encourage to read the full PF 2023 Survey of America's Current and Future Physicians: physiciansfoundation.org/research/ampli…
Here is a full list of workplace actions that residents and medical students rated on degree of helpfulness: (Source: PF 2023 Survey of America's Current and Future Physicians)
It is unclear how many medical schools use standardized tools/metrics to regularly assess student wellbeing. 72% of medical students from the PF Survey felt "using validated tools to regularly assess and respond to occupational burnout" could be helpful.
Despite calls to action in medical journals and by advocacy groups (@AmerMedicalAssn), there is no central, unidentified database managed by accrediting orgs for tracking and studying medical student suicides - thus, it is hard to adequately quantify and characterize the issue.
There are also various barriers to seeking mental health treatment, including cultural stigma, fear of ramifications for future medical licensing/credentialing, limited access to cheap mental health care, and lack of time to attend appointments (especially during clerkships).
Medical students have limited curricular flexibility, but balance rigorous academic workloads, financial stressors, personal/familial responsibilities, and "extracurriculars" such as research and volunteering (which have become increasingly emphasized in the Step 1 P/F era).
