Addressing The Root Causes of Clinical/Non-Clinical Staff Burnout

The healthcare sector faces a burnout crisis among both clinical and non-clinical staff due to heavy workloads and inefficiencies. Approximately one in three physicians experiences burnout, with non-clinical staff similarly affected. Addressing root causes through open communication and assessments is essential. Digital transformation, especially in HR operations, can alleviate workload, improve capacity, and reduce stress. Automation of onboarding processes expedites new hires, enhancing retention. These strategies, while requiring effort, offer significant benefits such as improved staff and patient experiences and reduced risks, making them vital for healthcare organizations to implement.
