Pilot Post Intervention Evaluation of Renew, A Program for Burnout Intervention Among Medical Professionals
Abstract
dc:description.abstract<p>The high incidence of occupational burnout among physicians and nurses is well documented in the literature. A pilot study using a grounded theory approach examined the experiences of seven physician participants in a burnout intervention program called RENEW. The study focused on post intervention outcomes. Physician participants echoed themes of personal insult that began in medical training and continued into their practices. Results of the investigation point to significant personal and clinical practice benefits as a result of participation in RENEW. Findings demonstrated that burnout prevention should be offered as an integral part of the medical school education and personal renewal intervention as a part of the total health care benefits package for practicing physicians.</p>
