Tackling burnout in The Netherlands - a podcast by BMJ Group

We heard a few podcasts ago about burnout - what it is, and why it should be thought of as a systems issue. Now a project in the Netherlands is trying to investigate who it is that is particularly at risk of burnout, and hopes to test whether individually tailored coaching and counselling can help those who are experiencing the symptoms change the way they’re working.

Karel Scheepstra is a psychiatrist and researcher in the Amsterdam University Medical Centre, and joins us to discuss what we know about burnout in Dutch doctors, and what this new research hopes to uncover.For more from our wellbeing campaign;
