Thursday Sep 23, 2021
Who takes care of the healthcare workers when the healthcare workers are taking care of everyone? Healthcare workers are facing burnout at alarming rates and this is leading to mental health challenges. "Normalizing talking about mental health is so no one needs to suffer quietly," says Dr. Imani McElroy, MD, resident physician at Massachusetts General Hospital.
In this PTSD and Beyond Podcast episode, Dr. McElroy talks about the emotional strain and outcomes facing healthcare workers. The extraneous hours associated with the pandemic are dangerous and the need to normalize mental health is a rescue to those who rescue us.
Dr. McElroy points out the importance of peer-support, mentors, and the need to reach out. Give a listen. Share with others and folks in healthcare.
