Stress and fatigue in general practice

Our policy position statement, Stress and fatigue in General Practice covers important information about what stress and fatigue means in clinical general practice and suggestions for effective discussions between registrars and supervisors on managing stress and fatigue.

Signs of burnout include:

  • low energy or motivation
  • feeling isolated or trapped
  • decreased work satisfaction
  • loss of empathy
  • feeling exhausted or drained

Look for warning signs of fatigue and burnout in both yourself and your colleagues.
