Mindful Medicine: Beating Burnout for More Effective Leadership
Download MP3As you know, burnout, stress and other mental health-related issues are at all-time highs for healthcare professionals. According to a recent MGMA Stat poll, 80% of healthcare leaders said their level of stress or burnout had increased in 2022. Because of this stress-related epidemic, MGMA is offering a new podcast series, Mindful Medicine, where each episode we will talk with experts in the fields of psychology, neurology, leadership and mindfulness to help explain workplace stress and provide tools and resources to combat it.
Our guest, for this initial episode, is Dr. Jeff Comer, PhD, MHA, FACHE, who has spent more than 20 years as an interim and permanent acute and behavioral hospital CEO. The hospitals have ranged from rural critical access hospitals to large urban facilities and have included non-profit, for-profit and government-owned models.
On the podcast, Dr. Comer discusses strategies for "Beating Burnout for More Effective Leadership." He also talks about the positive impact of kindness in the workplace.
