The following cross-sectional study measures resilience, coping, and professional quality of life in doctors. The study reports on the prevalence of and association between burnout, secondary traumatic stress, and compassion satisfaction. Overall, non-clinical issues in the workplace were the main factor perceived to cause low resilience. The authors conclude despite high levels of resilience, doctors had high levels of burnout and secondary traumatic stress. Those suffering from burnout are more likely to use mal-adaptive coping mechanisms. A national study to assess the UK and Ireland medical workforce in this regard is announced.
