Physicians and Stress - Highlights and preventions |

|
Conclusions/Summary: Overstressed
physicians need to minimize efforts and avoid tasks that drain their
energy, and invest in work that is more rewarding. They need to realize
that they are vulnerable and might need help at times. Family physicians
may be limited about what can be done about health care environment, but
they can change their outlook toward things, life and self. (4) All that
is required is commitment through several ways of approaching
frustrating situations. References
