Johns Hopkins Medicine Well-Being Research

In order to address the factors that contribute to burnout for our own clinicians, the Johns Hopkins Office of Well-Being is collaborating with partners across Johns Hopkins Medicine to look at systems, processes, and practices that promote the well-being of our faculty and staff. And we are working to mitigate the things that get in the way of professional fulfillment and work life balance.

JHM Interprofessional Well-Being Survey and Research Study

The Interprofessional Well-Being Survey and Research Study looks at professional fulfillment, burnout, work efficiency, peer support and work-life balance for Johns Hopkins Medicine clinicians.
