Track 1
| Thursday, November 21, 2024 |
| 1:30 PM - 2:30 PM |
Details
60min research workshop | Burnout is very prevalent amongst GPs and has severe personal and professional consequences. Alongside organisational and systemic interventions, there is a role for self-care strategies not only to avoid burnout, but also to help GPs thrive in their roles.
This workshop will provide an overview of recent research undertaken amongst GPs and GP registrars. You will learn about new models describing burnout and wellbeing, and how they relate. Specifically, the core role of value fulfilment will be described. Drawing upon this evidence, you will be guided through several practical exercises to apply these concepts to yourself.
By the end of the workshop, you will have developed a personalised burnout prevention plan that you can use to support your wellbeing and enjoy a more sustainable career.
