This week, on the EIM Practice Leadership Podcast, Dr. Larry Benz discusses something extremely important that, not only do we all face, but also is normal. It’s called empathy fatigue. Each of us, at some point or another, will get burned out in our professions. This type of burn out isn’t just caused by mundane tasks, as those are necessary, but by not taking enough time to rest. By not taking enough breaks. This can, unfortunately, lead to having less empathy for our patients and de-humanizing them.
Larry has some excellent wisdom, advice, and tips on empathy fatigue, how to combat it, and how to re-humanize ourselves and our patients.
