MSSNY’s Peer to Peer (P2P) Program
Stress and burnout among physicians have been documented for years. Physicians and other health professionals face ongoing concerns about safety, overworking, and feelings of loss. Without intervention, it is possible that a high number of physicians over the next few years may develop chronic stress reactions, anger, clinical depression, substance abuse, post-traumatic stress disorder, and suicidality. MSSNY’s P2P program allows physicians, residents, and medical students to talk with a peer about work or life stressors.
If you know a physician struggling with life stressors, contact the P2P program at [email protected] or 1-844-P2P-PEER (1-844-727-7337) to connect them with a peer supporter.
