STEPS Forward webinar series

On Feb. 3, 2021, the AMA held a webinar in the AMA STEPS Forward™ series: "No one should care alone: Creating processes for intentional professional connection."

Peer support programs have become widespread within the health care community and serve a vital role. These programs, however, generally only address the “tip of the iceberg” when it comes to the sense of distress and disconnection being experienced by many physicians. The COVID-19 pandemic has only exacerbated this already extensive challenge.

This presentation, designed to be both reflective as well as interactive, will help participants consider how to incorporate processes of intentional professional connection into their organizations, and into their own professional lives as well.
