What:

Join NMHM for a book talk with Dr. Wendy Dean as she discusses moral injury in medicine. For half a century, health care work distress has been described as burnout, but what if that is an incomplete diagnosis? Drawing from her book, new research, and frontline wisdom, Dr. Dean makes a case for a new understanding of medicine's challenges, why they matter to all of us, who will be patients one day, and what we can do about them.
