During this challenging time, physicians are working hard to care for patients, their families and communities.
The burden of this responsibility is taking its toll, with increased stress, anxiety, and risk of burnout.
Talking to other physicians can help.
The BC Physician Health Program (PHP) offers free drop-in COVID-19 Physician Peer Support Sessions via Zoom.
Join your colleagues, Psychiatrist Dr Jennifer Russel, and PHP’s Roxanne Joyce, to talk about the issues and challenges you’re facing. Sessions will focus on peer support not psychiatric care.
Dr Russel is a Psychiatrist and Clinical Director for the Compass Program at BC Children’s Hospital. Her work with the Compass Program was recently recognized with a CMA Changemaker Award. Dr Russel is also a member of Shared Care’s Child and Youth Mental Health Physician Community of Practice, and provides psychiatric services for the Physician Health Program.
