The Pediatric Orthopaedic Society of North America (POSNA) Adopts a Member Health and Wellness Charter. Journal of pediatric orthopedics Goldberg, M. J., Shea, K. G., Weiss, J. M., Carter, C. W., Talwalkar, V. R., Schwend, R. M. 2019; 39 (4): e241-e244

Abstract

The Pediatric Orthopaedic Society of North America took actions to address the well-being of its members. The epidemic of physician burnout interferes with the delivery of high-quality care that our patients and families need and deserve, and at the same time places the care-providers at an increased risk of depression and suicide. The actions taken by Pediatric Orthopaedic Society of North America serve as a model for other professional medical societies to emulate.
