But unfortunately, there has been much less written from a personal triumph and solution standpoint on getting to the root cause of why this is occurring now more than ever. The Resilient Healthcare Organization engages readers with personal anecdotes from physicians and healthcare professionals and their experiences and how they overcame a loss of enthusiasm for work, feelings of cynicism and a low sense of personal accomplishment.
