Burnout is at an all time high in healthcare and the world. Doctors and nurses are overwhelmed and many are to the point that they are literally leaving their jobs. Even on the health IT side of things, burnout is real and remote work options means that people can more easily switch jobs. Addressing staff burnout (clinical and IT) is one of the most important topics in healthcare today.
An area I hadn’t thought much about when it came to it’s impact on the healthcare staff experience is how a healthcare organization approaches its workstation setup. As I think about it now, it’s obvious that staff not being able to access a workstation, batteries running out on a workstation, and workstations not designed for complex clinical tasks each can contribute to staff burnout. The good news is that this is a problem that can be solved. The bad news is that many haven’t taken the time to address it.
