PCPs Continue to Struggle

As the pandemic protracts, so does the stress on clinicians.
Approaching the fifth month of COVID-19-related impacts on their practice, patients, personal and financial well-being, only 13% of clinicians report adapting to a “new normal.” When asked to describe their stress and the stress on their practice, 45% noted that “my ability to bounce back and adjust to adversity has become limited.” 38% say they are “maxed out with mental exhaustion.”
Fewer than 4 in 10 clinicians feel confident and safe with their access to PPE, while slightly more than 1 in 3 (36%) feels their lack of access to PPE feels unsafe, both because of reuse (20%) and scarcity (20%). Story HERE
