CHI Health launches 'Peer Support Program' for physicians and healthcare providers

CHI Health has introduced a new peer support program aimed at supporting physicians and healthcare providers in managing the emotional and psychological challenges associated with their profession. This initiative, which began in January, offers a confidential space for healthcare workers to discuss their experiences, particularly focusing on dealing with adverse events like patient deaths or medical errors. The program is facilitated by trained peer supporters who are themselves healthcare professionals, ensuring a deep understanding of the unique stresses faced by their colleagues. The goal is to foster a supportive environment that helps in reducing burnout, enhancing mental health, and improving overall well-being among healthcare staff. This program underscores CHI Health's commitment to the mental health of its employees, recognizing the critical role that emotional support plays in maintaining high-quality patient care.
