In a recent blog post, Sheridan Healthcare focused on this alarming statistic: More than 50 percent of ED doctors suffer from burnout at some point in their career.

One way to prevent burnout, is to provide a better toolbox of resources, according to the post.

A 2013 Medscape Medical News Study noted top causes of burnout including:

– Bureaucratic Taks

– Frequent Long Hours

– Low Income

– “Feeling like a cog in the wheel”

Sheridan notes that by offering more resources to ED doctors, such as a suggestion box and leadership development, this can help hospitals figure out what their doctors are concerned with.
