You Take Care of Others
Let Us Help Take Care of You
Physicians are under pressure, and it’s showing
The Challenge We Face
As Jamaica’s physicians, your well-being is critical to the health of our nation. Yet too many doctors struggle in silence. The Medical Council of Jamaica is here to change that.
According to a recent Medical Association of Jamaica survey:
- 38% of doctors do not have a personal physician
- 79% report difficulty accessing care
- 68% feel they lack the support they need
Physicians are more likely to delay care, downplay symptoms, and work through exhaustion. But doing so endangers both your health and your patients.
Delaying care is dangerous.
Untreated burnout and stress can lead to chronic illness, mental health challenges, and early mortality.
