Sadly, traumatic events are common in healthcare, medicine and public health
Are you a medical leader, medical director, or public health leader? Teams of doctors, clinicians, and others who work in healthcare can be exposed to a wide range of traumatic events relating to their work, their patients, and their colleagues. It is possible to not only recover but also to grow through the experience.
BMJ Careers has recently focused on the question of traumatic events in teams
This is an important topic for doctors in leadership roles, public health leaders, and their team members.
I was delighted to be commissioned to contribute to a recent article in BMJ Careers on this topic in January 2024. I share some evidence-based tips, along with two other contributors.
