In recognition of National Physician Suicide Awareness Day (September 17th), Dr. Carol A. Tavani, a renowned neuropsychiatrist and Executive Director of Christiana Psychiatric Services, shares her powerful insights on the challenges physicians face regarding mental health, burnout, and suicide risk.
Drawing on decades of experience leading the Physician Health Committee for the Medical Society of Delaware, Dr. Tavani highlights important statistics, risk factors, and systemic barriers that prevent many physicians from seeking help. She also emphasizes the vital importance of reducing stigma, fostering peer support, and creating confidential avenues for seeking treatment.
This important message reminds us that physicians are not immune to the pressures of their profession and deserve the same compassion, care, and support they provide for others. By raising awareness, we can help break the silence, reduce stigma, and advocate for systemic change.
