I will be presenting at the Health of Health Professionals Conference in Auckland, on November 3rd. The topic is: “What is Good for the Patient is Good for the Doctor.”

This presentation will examine clinician burnout, Gary Schwartz’ book, The Way We Are Working Isn’t Working, recovery principles from the recovery movement, and Parker Palmer’s concept of the “new professional.”

The focus of the presentation is on the concept that the care that a clinician provides for a client is partly dependent upon the practice environment that the organization creates for the clinician to practice within. As above, so below.
