In \u003ci\u003eJoy in Medicine?

Without some insight into who they are and the forces with which they struggle every day, we cannot fully appreciate the obstacles to providing the care we all want for ourselves and our families during the best of times, let alone in the uncertain times that lie ahead.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTrade Review\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\"Eve Shapiro, in this important book, has contributed two very meaningful insights. First, she has relayed the stories of 100 health professionals in their own words and has given us all a framework within which we can make sense of their stories. Second, she has engaged two powerful currents—burnout within health care and the worst public health challenge in a century—and has given us a reason for hope. This is a book all health professionals, as well as those in the public who care about their welfare, should read.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eJohn R.

We will not fix the myriad problems in healthcare without a deep understanding of what contributes to both joy and burnout. Her in-depth interviews with clinicians provide insights that every healthcare leader needs to understand if they are serious about being part of the solution, rather than part of the problem.\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003ePaul DeChant, MD, MBA\u003cbr\u003eAuthor, Executive Coach, and Prior CEO, Sutter Gould Medical Foundation\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\"A growing body of research about the physician\/caregiver experience identifies the causes, consequences, and remedies for physician burnout and the factors most highly related to physician joy and fulfillment.

Stories are like pollen. They engage and persuade. They move people to action. They spark conversations with ourselves and others. The stories shared in Eve’s book have that power. Individuals and organizations can use this book to understand and support caregivers and to identify and pursue improvement initiatives in our quest to achieve human-centered care and a gratifying caregiver experience.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWendy Leebov, Ed.D.\u003cbr\u003eAuthor, Creator of Language of Caring\u003cbr\u003ewww.languageofcaring.org\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\"Eve’s Shapiro’s book, \u003ci\u003eJoy in Medicine?, \u003c\/i\u003eis a call to action to save lives: lives of patients and families, and lives of physicians, nurses, and all stakeholders inside (and outside) the traditional healthcare system.
