Even before the pandemic, healthcare professionals face numerous challenges trying to thrive in the industry . These challenges were made even worse by the COVID-19 pandemic. The recent lifting of the global emergency response seemingly eased some of the challenges. Several colleagues though, hinted burgeoning new challenges of the post pandemic healthcare. Burnout and mental health problems among many healthcare professionals is at its all time high.
As a practicing physician, healthcare administrator and educator, I felt we emerged in a post pandemic world far from what exists before. It’s even more difficult to survive (let alone thrive) now in healthcare than before! I wanted to know what my colleagues have to say about these challenges and how they are coping to such challenges. This is the topic of our #HealthXPh chat this Saturday, August 12, 2023 9PM Manila time.
