What is — and isn’t — burnout according to research?

In today’s episode, we explore the clinical definition of burnout, why healthcare professionals are especially vulnerable to it, and the three dimensions of burnout as defined by Dr. Maslach.

Join me, Dr. Laurie Bruce, as we break down how to differentiate burnout from clinical depression, why chronic workplace stress slowly erodes well-being, and the key factors that increase the risk of burnout — along with what you can actually do about it.
