Did you know that locum work can be a powerful tool in preventing GP burnout? 🧘♀️ With the increasing demands on healthcare professionals, it's crucial to find balance. Locum positions offer the flexibility to take much-needed breaks, allowing you to recharge without sacrificing patient care. By choosing when and where to work, you can maintain your well-being while continuing to make a difference.💙 #trustlocums #locumagency #locumlife #reliablelocums #locumopportunities #locumtenens

Last week Medscape published its Physician Assistant Burnout Report. The research shows that high workloads, long hours, and the constant pressure of patient care contribute significantly to burnout among Advance Practice Providers. It's alarming to see the statistics on how many PAs are feeling burned out - and worse, considering leaving the medical field as a result. As we've published in recent research, working locum tenens assignments allows clinicians to regain control of their schedules and find a healthy work-life balance. By taking on short-term assignments, clinicians can tailor their workload to meet their needs, preventing the exhaustion and emotional fatigue that lead to burnout. This flexible approach to work not only helps maintain physical and mental well-being but also enhances job satisfaction. I'd encourage anyone who is or knows a clinician to give locum tenens a try and take a look at the many short-term assignments available on locumtenens.com or our job board dedicated to PAs and NPs - advancedpractice.com. #LocumTenens #BurnoutPrevention #AdvancedPractice #APP #NursePractitioners #PhysiciansAssistants

We clearly have work to do in #healthcare when just under half of #physicians, 49%, report being burned out and one in five are depressed. Collectively, we can make a difference by empowering doctors to focus more on patient care, with #valuebasedcare and its inherent focus on patient #health outcomes, helping doctors regain the joy of practicing medicine.

Delighted to share some highlights from our recent work! Beyond the rewarding interactions with clients, we've been lucky enough to work with other healthcare services and businesses to build their obesity competence. This involves crucial knowledge and skills to provide respectful care, comprehend the complexity and chronic nature of obesity, and address weight stigma. Here are a few tangible examples of initiatives we've recently helped other services implement: 1. Introduced new chairs in waiting areas designed for larger sizes and weights, ensuring they are of sufficient height for easy sit-to-stand transitions. 2. Stocked larger gowns in their cupboard for immediate use, promoting inclusivity. 3. Provided consultation and advice to improve accessibility and patient movement, including the procurement of mobility equipment (such as hoists and wheelchairs) for a hospital emergency department. 4. Initiated a lunchtime virtual learning series for clinical staff, focusing on effective communication about patient size and weight, especially when related to other medical conditions. 5. Conducted training sessions on assisting the movement of larger patients onto treatment tables/beds, addressing specific challenges like moving a pannus (belly fat) safely and comfortably at diagnostics services. 6. Delivered insights into the latest obesity science and the impact of weight stigma on clients' health avoidance behaviour to a group of allied health professionals. Excited about the positive impact these measures are making in fostering a more inclusive and supportive environments! #ObesityCompetence #HealthcareInclusion #Healthcare #ObesityCompetence #EquitableCare

𝗦𝘂𝗽𝗽𝗼𝗿𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗣𝗵𝘆𝘀𝗶𝗰𝗶𝗮𝗻𝘀 𝗶𝗻 𝗡𝗲𝗲𝗱: 𝗕𝘂𝗶𝗹𝗱𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗮 𝗦𝘁𝗿𝗼𝗻𝗴𝗲𝗿 𝗛𝗲𝗮𝗹𝘁𝗵𝗰𝗮𝗿𝗲 𝗦𝘆𝘀𝘁𝗲𝗺 🩺 Physician impairment not only endangers patient safety but also places a heavy emotional and professional burden on doctors. It's tough enough to diagnose others without having to diagnose what's eating you up inside. Ignoring the warning signs can lead to compromised patient care, potential legal troubles, and harm to the healthcare provider's reputation. Worse yet, not supporting these doctors intensifies the existing workforce shortages. Here's a straightforward three-step plan to help: 🏥 Initiate Wellness Programs: Develop support networks with access to counseling and stress management to help physicians cope better. 🏥 Set Up Early Detection Systems: Implement mechanisms that catch issues early, helping physicians before problems become severe. 🏥 Establish Rehabilitation Pathways: Design programs that facilitate a safe return to work, ensuring doctors are ready and able to continue their critical roles. By creating an environment where it's okay to seek help, we make it easier for impaired physicians to return to what they do best—saving lives and promoting health. After all, doctors need to be in good health to bring others back to good health. How does your organization support physicians facing these challenges? 💬 I’d appreciate hearing your approaches and insights. #healthcare #physicianwellness #patientsafety #physicianimpairment #health #publicspeaking
