Abstract
The objective of this study was to evaluate the impact of the stress intervention Docs for Dinner on factors related to physician disengagement and professional isolation.
A specifically designed survey was distributed to physicians who had participated in the program.
The results indicate that physician participants found the experience to be positive and worthy of continuation and that it allowed a unique interaction with colleagues, increased engagement with colleagues, promoted a more positive view of the relationship with the healthcare system, enhanced a sense of well-being, and had a small but positive impact on motivation for patient care.
Docs for Dinner appears to be a readily implemented and well-received approach to enhancing physician engagement and collegial interaction, increasing the sense of well-being, and fostering perception of a healthcare organization that may help to mitigate contemporary stressors facing physicians.
