Pediatrician and certified coach Jessie Mahoney discussed her article,
“Physician wellness is a strategic imperative-not a moral crusade,” on
the KevinMD podcast. Mahoney said physicians must shift their advocacy
for well-being from a reactive, moral argument to a strategic one that
aligns with institutional priorities.
Effective change comes not from complaining, but from understanding how
physicians’ training contributes to the culture of unwellness, and what
leadership truly values, Mahoney said. She provided a framework for
physicians to step out of victimhood and into leadership, learning to
“speak the language” of executives by framing wellness as a necessity
for retention, financial sustainability, and quality patient care.
Mahoney said that leaders and hospital systems care about retention,
quality of care, cost of care, and patient satisfaction. All of those
things are improved when physicians are healthy and have sustainable
practices, she said.
Mahoney said that healthier physicians who are present, mindful, and not
depleted and reactive have more satisfied patients and practice higher
quality care that is less expensive.
Mahoney said that the “moral crusade energy” of feeling wronged, even
though there is moral injury in health care, is not the energy that
leads to a solution. She said that physicians went into medicine because
they care about patients, and they are the people who have the solutions
because they work in the system and understand it.
