Redesigning shift work to improve patient care and well-being


Listen Later

Join emergency physician Maureen Gibbons as they explore the concept of rethinking shift work in health care. They discuss how distributing shifts among multiple physicians can reduce burnout, enhance job satisfaction, and improve patient outcomes. Learn how aligning schedules with natural energy patterns and prioritizing seamless handoffs can create a healthier, more effective workplace for providers and patients alike.

Maureen Gibbons has transitioned from a fulfilling career in emergency medicine to one where her skills, training, and passion for teaching yield unparalleled returns—physically, emotionally, and financially.

She discusses the KevinMD article, "Rethinking shift work: Why 'job sharing' is the key to happier, healthier doctors."
