Shared Historical Trauma – Weathering, Numbing and Reality
By Dr. Jim Deutsch
We all hear about the increasing burnout and “moral injury” in healthcare workers resulting from the current contradictions in healthcare and public health. About the feelings of helplessness in encountering individual trauma and suffering. At the same time, how do we healthcare providers make good use of our indignation at the obvious impacts of the systemic wrongs, blindness, and injustices? How can we turn cynicism and pessimism at the transparent prioritizing of profits and power over prevention and protection? Healthcare and the people we serve continue to be commodified as “value” to be extracted from bodies.
