As healthcare workers, we take care of others but do we always take care of ourselves? Burnout is a real and concerning problem among those who work in healthcare and was exacerbated by the COVID pandemic. It is such a concern that the US Surgeon General has put out an advisory which highlights an urgent need to address the burnout crisis across the country. This episode of KidsCast features Dr. Melissa Hopper, a clinical psychologist, to discuss this topic and offer a better understanding of burnout through her own experiences along with providing insight on how to bring the joy back to medicine.
