The Truth about Burnout
Burnout can be a very strange and lonely place.
When I was invited to write a foreword for Sodexo Engage’s latest workplace benefits survey, I was eager to dig into it and better understand how those working in the healthcare sector were taking care of themselves. I hoped things had moved on in the past few years, especially in light of the pandemic and the growing pressures on our workforce. At first, I was surprised that, despite there being a wide range of different benefits out there, we don’t seem to be making full use of them. Then again, when you’re suffering from burnout, you can be peculiarly resistant to recognising what is happening and asking for help.
In this blog, we take a look at: the truth about burnout, reaching burnout, recovering from burnout, and communication: breaking the stigma.
