Our vision is to foster professional fulfillment, reduce healthcare worker occupational distress, and cultivate a culture of professionalism and well-being to support all members of our team
Physician burnout negatively affects the care team, quality of care, healthcare costs, patient experiences and the providers themselves.
We’re committed to moving from the Triple Aim of healthcare (i.e., improving patient experience, reducing cost and improving population health) to the Quadruple Aim, which adds provider well-being as an essential target that drives quality patient care.
