Ishwaria Subbiah: How unprocessed grief may be a major hidden driver of the alarming 59% burnout rate among oncologists

Ishwaria Subbiah, Executive Director for Cancer Care Equity and Professional Wellness at Sarah Cannon Research Institute (SCRI), shared a post on LinkedIn:

“This insightful article by Dr. Janet Abrahm explores how unprocessed grief may be a major hidden driver of the alarming 59% burnout rate among oncologists. Rather than viewing patient deaths as personal burdens to process alone, health systems can:

  • Normalize the sharing of grief in the workplace.
  • Establish office bereavement programs.
  • Hold institutional remembrance services.

As healthcare faces unprecedented workforce challenges, addressing such human elements of medical practice advances the clinical team’s professional wellbeing and the delivery of sustainable, compassionate patient care.”
