简要总结
Given the high incidence of burnout, depression, and suicidal ideation among Canadian healthcare providers (HCPs), there is an urgent need to support wellness through strengthening peer networks and engaging key stakeholders. This project will explore the capacity of digital tools to educate HCPs and enable them to support their mental health. The investigators will evaluate specific research questions: Are HCPs more aware of their wellness needs? Did burnout and stress decrease? Do HCPs feel more supported by their peers? The overarching objective is to contribute towards a culture prioritizing HCP wellbeing. The investigators hope to achieve this through two outcome-oriented objectives: 1) to create resources to promote HCP wellbeing and 2) to foster a web-based HCP community. This initiative integrates big data tools, interactive online content, and the Solving Healthcare podcast to improve HCP wellness. It is anticipated that HCPs will become more aware of their wellness needs, and once they are able to identify strategies to live healthier work lives, cultural changes will take place, leading to a new attitude surrounding HCP mental health. To complete these objectives, resources will be drawn from the HELP-MD physician database and an advisory circle, and will be disseminated via a web platform and the widely known Solving Healthcare podcast. The project's significance stems from the changes it will incite in both individuals and health care institutions, inspiring long term changes in workplace culture and teaching the next generation that a balanced work life is attainable.

结局指标
主要结局
Increase in perceived peer support
时间窗: 12 months
A pre/post intervention staff questionnaire will measure this outcome quantitatively through the inclusion of questions relating to the degree of perceived peer support , and measured qualitatively by thematic analysis of post-intervention focus group discussions with study participants and staff stakeholders.
Reduction in healthcare provider stress
时间窗: 12 months
As measured by the administration of the Perceived Stress Scale (PSS) at Months 1 and 12 of the intervention phase. The PSS consists of 10 questions, answered on a scale of 0-4 depending on the frequency of which the behavior is observed, with 0 indicating "never" and 4 indicating "very often". Overall, a score of 0 indicates low stress, while a score of 40 indicates an individual with high perceived stress levels.
Reduction in healthcare provider burnout
时间窗: 12 months
As measured by the administration of the Maslach Burnout Inventory (MBI) at Months 1 and 12 of the intervention phase. The MBI is a 22 question survey which evaluates 3 subscales; emotional exhaustion, depersonalization and reduced personal accomplishment. Each question is rated from 1 to 5, where 1 is strongly disagree and 5 is strongly agree. A high score on the emotional exhaustion subscale (27+) coupled with a high score on the depersonalization scale (10+) indicates that the individual may be experiencing 1+ symptoms of burnout.
Increased awareness of personal wellness needs
时间窗: 12 months
A pre/post intervention staff questionnaire will measure this outcome quantitatively through the inclusion of questions relating to the degree that wellness is considered daily, and measured qualitatively by thematic analysis of post-intervention focus group discussions with study participants and staff stakeholders.
Increased ability to apply wellness practices to daily life
时间窗: 12 months
A pre/post intervention staff questionnaire will measure this outcome quantitatively through the inclusion of questions relating to the degree that wellness is considered daily, and qualitatively measured by thematic analysis of post-intervention focus group discussions with study participants and staff stakeholders.
